Finding Tool
Finding Tool
(OP)
Hello.
I have a part, where the model tree is too long to find feature in the model tree so i would like to use finding tool (ctrl+f). I know the name of feature (like draft 18).
Search tool window attributes: Look for: Feature, Look by: Feature, Rule: name, Comparison: is equal to, Value: draft 18. But it finds nothing.
Is the right procedure of finding?

2. With the draft selected, select the arrow between the items found and the items selected boxes and the selected draft will remain hilited after you select close within the search tool menu.
RE: Finding Tool
So, If I understand, you can't just enter the exact name of feature (like draft 18). You can just find all drafts and choose the right one from the found list after that, is it right?

Hope that helps and good luck,

Thank you.
RE: Finding Tool
"Draft 18" or any other Model Tree name with spaces is just a default name and doesn't contain the word Draft or 18.
You'll notice this if you click the feature to rename it you'll see a blank name. For other features without spaces in name the feature name such as DTM1 contains no spaces and will show in the name field when you click to rename it the text will be as shown.
The default name just contains the Feature Type and the number of those features that have been created so far.
If you rename your feature "Draft18" then the Find tool will find it otherwise the previous methods will work to find all Draft Type features and pick from the list.
