AutoCad 2D :: Edit One Text String And Same Change Can Affect Another Text String

Nov 16, 2012i failed to find one which would change string of a text to other for all types of objects. I mean it was usually either only multitext, or only text, dimensions or attributes.creating one which would change in abt 200 drawings:
-001
-002
-003
to:
-00001
-00002
-00003
in attributes, text, multittext, leaders, multileaders, dimensions..... at the same moment?
It is meant to be used in ScriptPro (by loading lisp in script).
If not possible, then can also open each file and run the lisp in each of them - still would save lot of time.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: Finding And Replacing A Text String To Style Block Of Copy
Jul 19, 2012Is there a way when finding and replacing a text string to style the block of copy. My problem is that I have some color codes given by the customer that now need to be converted to our internal color matches on our production drawings.
The original string of text looks like this:
Holder: P1 (Metallic Silver)
What I’m getting when I go to replace this string is:
Holder: Natural Satin
What I want is:
Holder: Natural Satin
I do not want the replaced text to be italicized. I'm thinking since the original string ends with an italic style that the replacement string is also italicized. There are about 50 pages of drawings with about 10 colors on the job and some pages have them entered in more than one place. So that's a minimum of 500 entries and defititely more considereing the multiple places these are called out. I'd really rather not have to copy and paste all of these by hand. I'm use to FreeHand, which would respect the font styling of pasted text in the find and replace diaglog.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Remove Iproperty Mass Unit String From Mass Value In Text String?
Oct 3, 2011I've been looking for a solution to remove the unit string ie Lbs, g, kg from the value given from a 'Mass' value in a text string.
As you may all know, creating text and having a 'physical property - mass' value...the unit string is there...
Lots of people on here have the problem...no-one has got a solution.
Until now...
Basically...open the part you need to get the mass property of in your text string.
Follow the instructions on this webpage...this is the first part...
[URL]
Basically, this creates a Mass property value in the parameters table that you can call on as a text parameter.
It's similar to the custom iproperty model - mass but NOT the same.
Once you have done this, you can go to the drawing of the part and create a text string in the drawing and call it up as shown in this procedure. BUT it still has the unit string.
Here's the best bit that you want to know...
To get RID of the unit string...open up the part again from the drawing...click on the parameter icon...find the user parameter...in the Nominal value column, right click on the value and you get a pop-up that gives you 3 options...
Custom Property Format, Make Multi Value & Delete Parameter.
Click on Custom Property Format.
The pop-up window comes up...showing you the property type...in my case...the 4 left columns read Text, g (grams), Format & Precision...
On the right hand side I have a Preview of the text...then 3 check boxes...Units string, Leading Zero's, Trailing Zero's.
Units string is checked.
Uncheck it.
Close it...Save your part...go back to the drawing and hey presto!...the text now shows the weight you require as a straight value...no units!
Illustrator :: How To Set A Document Font On All The Text
Aug 21, 2013I've recently started getting into Illustrator and was wondering if there existed a way to set a "document" font that all the text within the Illustrator file will follow? I'm building a generic document that I'd like to customize for clients by using their standard font. Is there a way to do this such that you only set the font in one place? I'd prefer to also font once rather than selecting all the text layers and changing the font for all.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: How To Copy Text Object From One Document To Other
Jul 23, 2013The goal is to copy a text object from one illustrator(CS6) document to another maintaining live type and having a graphic style applied from the appearance panel. When an effect like an arch is applied it is converting the text to outlines during the copy and paste, however a straight fill will not. The type of font (TrueType, OpenType, Postscript) does not seem to affect the problem.
Alternatively I have been able to take the desired appearance, create a graphic style from it, apply that to a path and transfer the graphic style to the new document via copy/paste, then apply it to live type on the new document. Obviously this is not ideal.

Sep 28, 2012Instead of adding text as a prefix or suffix i would like to know if it is possible aswell to remove text from within text: For example:
I have these texts "I am not good", "he is not good", "what not to be" And i would like to remove the word "not" from all selected text so i would get "i am good", "he is good" , "what to be". The set word not will always be the same, so there is no need for user string input.
Illustrator :: Change Default Text In CS6 Permanently For Every New Document Or Import?
Feb 27, 2014My work involves importing in new documents and formating them correctly. We have a specific font style that is different than the original font. Illustrator cannot read those fonts, so it defaults to Myriad Pro in the original text size. Since it is changing it from Myriad Pro to Arial, I don't really have a problem with the global change that this would have.
I already have the [Character Styles] options set up for a template, but this does not work on new documents.
We are on Windows 7 with CS6.

View 8 Replies View RelatedIllustrator Scripting :: How To Access Text Boxes In Existing Document And Replace With New Value
Jun 28, 2012Is there a way to access text boxes in an existing document and replace them with a new value taken from an excel table? I've been able to create new documents from scratch and populate them with excel data, but formating these new documents to look like those we already made is proving more difficult than I thought using just Javascript.
Ideally I'd be able specific an index for each text box and replace them in order as i itterate through the excel(or CSV) document.
I already have a way to pull from the table, another question asked here, but can't figure out the object model to put the new info in a specific place.
Below is what I came up with to create a very rough looking document from scratch:
#target Illustrator
var csvFile = new File('C:/users/whatever/spreadsheet.csv');
if(!csvFile.exists){
alert('notafile');
app.quit(); }

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Apply Single String Value To All Layers In Drawing
May 30, 2012Is there a way to apply a single string value "Phase1", or "Phase2" to all layers in a drawing? I though about exporting a Layer State, modifying it in Excel, then re-importing the layer state, but, Layer States don't store a value for "Description."
I'm creating a consolidated map from several drawings, but I'd like to be able to separate the layers from each drawing. Description seems like a good value to populate and be able to sort by in the Layer Manager.
AutoCAD .NET :: Attribute Reference Text String
Sep 4, 2013I change a block's attributes programmatically using thisfunction I created:
private void UpdateAttributes(Database database, Detail det) { using (Transaction tr = database.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { //Grab the BlockReference the detail refers to. BlockReference block = (BlockReference)tr.GetObject(det.ObjectId, OpenMode.ForRead); //Iterate over the Attribute ids. foreach (ObjectId [code].......
You can ignore the Detail and Detail Attribute objects as they are also user-defined. Also note that this function expects the database to be currently open for working on.
Everything in this function works fine, but there is a strange quirk that becomes noticeable only when I use this function to edit an attribute that has its "Invisible" property set to "No".
Below, is the original block that is edited via this function:
As you can see, the block has a number with 4 digits (for our purposes, call this the Block Number).

View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Keep Original String In Text Override?
Aug 15, 2011I know it is easy to enter special characters in using “%%” escape sequence. However, if I am not entering in single or multiline text, but rather in a dimension annotation’s “override” field, I found that the newly entered text completely overrides the original dimensional annotation.
For example, if originally I had a diameter of 7.98, and I would like to put a Φ sign in front of it to make Φ7.98, but it seems that there is no way to preserve the original content of 7.98 together with the Φ sign.
Is it possible to keep the original measurement within the string? What is the special character representing the original measurement?
