:In AUTOCAD, is it possible to search for a certain character or text and then automatically navigate to that location? The search function isn’t anything special; I hope it’s possible to directly move to the desired graphic, just like in Word (or maybe like in Google Earth?) O(∩_∩)O )
Versions 2006 and later have this feature: select the \"Edit\" menu, choose \"Find\", and a \"Find and Replace\" window will appear. Enter the characters you want to search for in the \"Find What\" field; click the \"Find\" button to locate the string, and click it again to find the next occurrence. If you can’t identify the location of the string, click \"Zoom To\" to try to navigate to the area containing the string.
Find----Enter what you want to search for; use ALT+F to search. If a result is found, use ALT+Z to zoom in, and use ALT+C to stop searching. It seems the original poster hasn’t studied this topic in enough detail.
Thank you for the guidance. I don’t use it very often; I mainly look at other people’s images. (Sounds like a manager saying that: lol?) It’s actually just a file manager And that's it: D ;P ;P) Just out of curiosity
I guess he’s around 30 years old; he’s part of the newer generation who has been using CAD for a while, relying on all the shortcut keys, as his supervisor can’t remember them
:Brother L, are you serious? :@ I would be so happy if you guessed I’m 20! The amount you learn about CAD is generally not proportional to the length of time you spend with it. We have people here who have been working in this field their whole lives; they are still using R14, and they know very little about CAD. It can be seen that one must study something with dedication on their own in order to master it. By the way: I’m also from the 80s, bro. It’s worth using shortcut keys to improve efficiency.
The shortcut keys are different from those in other commonly used software, which is quite annoying; it takes a lot of effort to remember them. Even if you’re 20 years old and use them only once a year, you probably won’t remember them. Besides, I’m already… :'( I’m sorry to say this; I feel ashamed!
They’re all experts; I learn from them*. I really need to improve, but unfortunately I don’t use CAD very often – I don’t have that much time to spend on it
