Illustrator :: Find And Replace Functions In CC?

Oct 23, 2013

the options given are rarely used the most important one is missing
 
find and replace paragraph returns indesign does it elegantly, but illustror has been the same for years with obsolete options
 
how hard it is just to use the same functions that ADOBE indesign, this is a terrible case of incosistency between the two products when claiming total integration to me is an epic fail, i would have fired my employes over this

Illustrator :: Find And Replace Simple Action Crashes CC?

Jan 29, 2014

I am now trying Creative Cloud and I came with this bug. When I use a simple action to find and replace a text string in my file it will crash the Illustrator.
 
My actions is pretty simple:

Find > "aa" (I do have to check all the options to work)
Find and Replace > "aa" to "2014.01.29"
 
This action works well if I use it once by the Edit menu, but if I close the Illustrator and reopen, it'll not work again and will crash the software. Everyday I do update my action to actual date, so the action will work normally but sometimes I do have to close the app and I have to make the action again and again everytime.
 
This was a problem already in CS5, last version that I used. I'm using Windows 8.

Illustrator Scripting :: Find And Replace Layer Names

Mar 19, 2013

Are there any scripts to find and replace layer names?
 
There is an excellent script available for Photoshop which allows you to not only replace words in layer names, but also insert words as Prefixes, Suffixes and Sequential Numbers. The illustrator version of this script only allows sequential numbering: It doesn't offer find and replacing of words.
 
Ideally, it would be great if there was something that could do multiple find and replaces in one go:

(E.g.
You have layers like this Car, Dog, Bat
You enter: car(Option1), dog(Option2), Bat(Option3)
Your layers then become: Option1, Option2, Option3).
)

Illustrator Scripting :: Find And Replace Script Using Info From File Name?

Jun 11, 2012

Is it possible to write an Illustrator (CS4) script that would find and replace 2 instances of text using the actual file name to supply the changing text?
 
Our current file naming system uses a Part Number, Catalog Number and Run Date. (example: 123456_ABCDEF_2014 JN)We are currently saving a master file as the new Part Number and simply doing 2 separate find and replace functions for the Catalog Number and Run Date. Unfortunately we have over 500 parts to change and thought we could narrow down the 1000 find and replace to just 500. Although this may not appear like such a time saver, the key factor would mean entering the changing data just once per file, minimizing errors and eliminating proof reading the actual file.
 
Here is what I have used for a simple find and replace script, but I cannot seem to find any information to connect the file name data.
 
[code]

var active_doc = app.activeDocument;
 var search_string = /ABCDEF/gi; // g for global search, remove i to make a case sensitive search
var replace_string = "GHIJKL";
 var text_frames = active_doc.textFrames; 
var search_string2 = /1234 XX/gi; // g for global search, remove i to make a case sensitive search
var replace_string2 = "5678 YY";

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Find And Replace Objects?

Aug 24, 2012

Why does the find and replace functionality have to be so sloppy to use?  I have a customer that sends me cmyk drawings and I need them to be rgb.  They also have lines that need to be changed to hairline from .25pt.  It's frustrating how difficult this is to accomplish due to the sloppy interface that CD has had ever since I've been using it - since v12.

How hard would it be to allow you to change the palette, line width and colors on lines and outlines in one step?  Right now it's multiple steps and don't forget once to change the target color palette or you'll convert everything back to cmyk...

AutoCAD 2010 :: Way To Find And Replace Carriage Return

Sep 18, 2013

I am wondering if there is any way to 'find & replace' a carriage return; specifically to add one in. I have figured how to take it out.
the reason I want to do this, is because 'tcount' will increment, by the amount specified, for each line of mtext; I have multiple lines of 2 line mtext, and I want to 'tcount' one number in the first line of each instance of mtext.

Now, I know I can do it manually, and in fact I would have had it done almost an hour ago if had, but this issue crops up every now and again, where if there was a fix or work-around to the 'tcount' issue (such as somehow inserting a carriage return) my efficiency could be increased.. for example I could get through renumbering 30 instances of 2 or 3 line mtext across 15 different drawings..

AutoCad 2D :: Find Replace Text With Carriage Return?

Sep 18, 2013

I am trying to replace multiple instances of a multiline text entity throughout several drawings and can’t seem to find a good way to make this come to fruition. (must use carriage return to differentiate between other instances of the text) ie

Replace:
Name
Location
Date

Vs

Replace:
Name

I need it to replace the text in the instance that has multiple text lines, and not the name where the text is on it’s own. I have seen mention of using “u+000A” as a carriage return in older versions, but I can’t get it to work.

I used a command a few months ago but i cant remember what is was called!

Ive tried TCOUNT command and i couldn't get that to work with the text fields.
