Info
titleSearch For

The "Search For" field supports the * and # wildcards (available in v2900 or newer).

AHU*_ would denote any substring starting with AHU and ending with _

AHU#_ would denote any substring starting with AHU and ending with _ while also having numbers inbetween


The following options are possible as of version 4.5.817:

If you want to replace an actual * or # character with something, you can prefix it with a \ character to let it know not to interpret it as a wildcard.

AHU\*_ would denote a substring that looks like AHU*_

AHU\#_ would denote a substring that looks like AHU#_

Adding a comma into the "Search For" will allow you to replace multiple things with the same "Replace With" value.

AHU,VAV would denote that you want to replace all substrings that are either AHU or VAV

Prefixing the , character with a \ character will allow you to replace the , character as well

AHU\,VAV would denote that you want to replace the substring AHU,VAV


When the fields has been filled in the user can hit Apply and the changes will take effect.
