Changing #Autotext values with "Search and Replace text.." tool

[Algimantas Kuprenas]

Made video hack how using "Search and Replace text..." tool can be used to change several #Autotext values in text box'es and labels. But I think function should be programed in "Search and Replace text" tool more elegant. Also by doing my way "PROPERTY" value gets very long, not sure what issues this can cause in project, but it looks that #Autotext only reads first PROPERTY value numbers.

Made 2nd video where I accidentaly found that values can be edited / copied and pasted straight in "Search and Replace tool..." it looks not user friendly that you need to doulbe / tripple press values of text so COPY/PASTE functions will appear or Tripple press to have straight away editing.

Search and Replace tool is powerfull one but needs basic user friendly improvements also

Hey algimantas,

Currently working through issues ive been having with  'missing' autotext properties, and your post was alot of help. i do have something to add, if you open the 'filters' tab, and select 'include uneditable elements', and then un-select all filters excluding 'associative labels', it allows you to use the replace function for the directly missing autotext. I use element information to find the ID of the deleted autotext, and also the ID of the correct ID autotext, then paste these into 'search & replace'. Refer to the imaged attached, hope it helps in the future for others. They really need to create a better system for replacing previously broken & missing properties, fingers crossed archicad does something about it soon.

And when i say archicad create a better system, create a delete and replace function for properties,  similar to the replace attributes via file method -
