Is there a way to find text within Sequence?

Many of the TestStand 3.0 sequences that I'm creating are fairly lengthy (200 or more steps plus subsequences) and I often need to find a step within the sequence that has a specific string in the Step Name.
I'm aware of the "Find" feature, but this will change screens and give me a list of all of the steps in the sequence that contain the search string.
What I want to do is to search for the string within the Sequence so that it takes me to the NEXT occurance of that string (F3 for Find Next), so that I can Edit the Step (i.e. change the Specify Module, Preconditions, or Expressions).
The only workaround that I've figured out so far is to highlight the sequence, do a "CTL-C" and paste into a word processor, then search th
at document. Once I find it, I then have to find the same line in the TestStand Sequence.
Is there an easier way?
Mike

Mike -
I do understand your wanting this type of Find capability. We had considered different designs of Find feature in TestStand and one design allowed for F3 to traverse the tree view of a single step group in a sequence. There were drawbacks to this approach, so we decided on the current implementation. Since you cannot instruct the sequence editor to view specific location in its tree view, any solution that you create would require your own sequence tree view to facilitate the display and editing of the values. The SearchResults class in TestStand 3.0 was used to implement the underlying find functionality in the sequence editor.

  • Is there a way to find text within InDesign documents in a search using windows environment?

    We are working in Windows and transitioning from using Word to InDesign for our documents.  InDesign documents do not show up in the results when trying to search for a file name or file contents. How can we search for specific text within our InDesign documents?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Is there any way to find text highlighted in adobe reader and automatically copy it to comment boxes?

    If I use a pdf highlighted in Adobe Reader (metro) in another PDF reading program, one with functionality to retrieve and list various annotations on the PDF, it simply finds "sticky note" as Adobe Reader highlights the text but fails to copy and paste it into a 'highlight' comment box. I intend to use another program with this feature automatic, from this point forward, but is there any way I can retroactively and automatically do this same task to all the other work I've done with Adobe Reader? It is, as I understand, a standard function of PDF annotation.
    Of course, ideally, I would also like this to be automatic in the future, as the Adobe Reader Metro App is generally well-designed, touch-interface wise. But this lacking feature makes finding my comments a much greater hassle than it should be (as I can see where I highlighted, but not what without traveling directly to the page)
    Also on a side note, I apparently can't delete a sticky note from within the app, what the hell

    You cannot enforce something like that. You have some options when the field is set up to allow rich text formatting, but the user can always change it.

  • Is there a way to Find & Replace within a selection?

    I looked in the User Guide, but I didn't find any information on how to Find & Replace just within selected text. I can see how to do it for the entire document or do it one instance at a time. Is there a trick I'm missing, or is this a missing feature?

    Hey Chuck,
    I opened Pages and used its help menu and came up with this. It does not specifically mention anything about choosing just 1 paragraph or text box, but I hope it helps you none the less.

  • Is there a way to find/change the font of numericals only, within a document in indesign?

    Is there a way to find/change the font of numericals only, within a document in indesign?

    It might not be what you need for this document, but if you were creating it from scratch, a GREP style would probably be the way to go. That way,  new figures added to the text will  automatically be styled the way you like.
    Start with a base Paragraph Style (i.e. 'Body') that all subsequent styles ('Heading' etc) are based on. Select a figure, and apply the font and any other attributes required. Select it and make a new Character Style. In your Paragraph Style, go to GREP Styles, and set it to apply the Character Style to the 'Any Digit' Wildcard.

    The only way would be to restore the phone from a backup made by syncing the phone while this message was still on it.  Note: this would revert all data and settings to those in the backup, not just messages.

    Is there any way to find a log of the send e-mail from ICloud.. to analyse how many email has been send and deleted within a day from send items

    Thx Winston,
    I can count the send item. But let me try to explain why did I ask this question.
    I had a trouble in sending e-mails from icloud on 22/2 and when I saw in my send item there were no emails.
    But the mesgs to whom I emailed received and out of which only few of them didn't got the email. So I wanted to know the log abt the outflow of the mesg with subject and the receipants email id and the list with attachment or not.
    How and where will I get the information apart from send item and draft mesg and the outflow undelivered?
    Regards

  • I have files that freeze my programs whenever I try to open ANY file. Is there a way to find the exact files causing the crash?

    I have files that are freezing my programs (adobe; after effect and photoshop, as well as maxon cinema 4d). Whenever I try to import ANY file from within the program it doen't even let me select the file I need before freezing. I have moved all files off my desktop and into my dropbox, and it now allows me to import files/search for files on the desktop but NOT dropbox, once I go to dropbox it freezes again. I am assuming there are files within dropbox now that are crashing my programs. The problem is I have a lot of files in there and would like to remove the corrupt ones so that I can use my programs without freezing. Is there a way to find the exact files causing the crash?
    This has happened a couple of times and each time I have to move all my files off my desktop, so there must be a type of file doing this, I just don't know what files they are.

    This error sounds to me like you have/had BootCamp Windows installed and then removed, posible ?
    If so (and even if not so), try restating your MBA while holding down the alt/option-key until you get to the Boot Selection Screen.
    Choose to boot OSX.
    Once in OSX go to System Preferences then Startup Volume and set your OSX to be the default.

  • Is there a way to find out, whether the student or the full version is currently installed?

    Hi everyone!
    First of all: Merry Christmas!
    A longer text with some background information is following. My question will be at the bottom.
    My computer is a good boy and it didn't disappoint me for quite a while now.
    I had once installed the student version (german) of CS3 extended on this one.
    Then, after having removed the student version some time later when needed, I have re-installed the full version.
    This time, however, it was in english and it wasn't the extended version either.
    After the software has accepted my serial id, I was quite content. It felt much better in english and I was able to use photoshop to the fullest once again.
    Today, I have gotten my hands on the upgrade version to CS5 (again in english and not extended, but that's all I need).
    After the installation guide has told me, that there are no programmes installed which are compatible to the upgrade, I was confused.
    I have realised that my current CS3 version was still the extended one, even though it was in english and it wasn't the student version either (at least, that's what I believe, because there were no "activate"/"deactivate" buttons in the help menu where it used to be in the german student version before).
    So while doing an upgrade to CS5, I had to chose CS3 extended from the list and had to type in the old student's version serial number.
    Nothing else worked, even though I've tried to chose the CS3 version in combination with the other serial number, which belong to the full version both.
    Now to my question:
    Is there a way to find out, whether the student or the full version is currently installed?
    (Other than looking at the box of course, that would be quite trivial. I am worried if the installation guide hasn't removed all components thoroughly.)
    Thanks in advance,
    Happy holidays,
    Jeff

    Thanks for the reply!
    That's what I thought as well. However, that wasn't the case. Whether it's the educational or the full version, both splash screens looked the same.
    At least for the CS3 version.I know how I was quite confused about that in the past when I'd realised that.
    The CS5 splash screen didn't say anything about a student version, but I was able to deactivate the application. I thought this was possible for the student version only.
    I've tried using the adobe clean program like suggested, but that didn't work either. The installation guide of CS5 still didn't bother asking for an older version.
    I.e.: It still used the educational serial number from before.
    After reinstalling windows on my pc, the installation guide finally wanted to know about my CS3 again.
    However, it told me, that the serial number of the full version in combination with CS3 is not valid. Just like it did before.
    Maybe it's because the full version was made in the USA and the CS5 upgrade version was made in Austria - Ireland?
    That would be really frustrating.

  • Is there a way to find out where iMessages are being sent from? I've received messages from an unknown email that are offensive and considered to be harassment.

    Is there a way to find out where iMessages are coming from? I've contacted security personnel at my school and I'm brig harassed. I just want it to stop.

    '''Here is an update to my former response.'''
    Here is a safe way to look at an email which you think is suspicious:
    * right click on the message and select 'Save As'
    * the file name will be the email subject followed by an extension of .eml
    * store it in a folder you can find easily, such as your Documents
    * using your file explorer, right click on the file name and open it with Notepad or a similar text editor (NOT Thunderbird!)
    * even though the format is not easy to read, you should be able to see who sent it to you, and also read the message text.
    Since you are looking at the message in a text editor, there is no chance a link can activate something bad. I have used this method many times, and have found several spoofs of email names of my friends.

  • Is there a way to find peak audio level?

    I'm using FCE 4 and I am trying to adjust the audio level on a number of tracks. In most of the I can do it without problem using Normalization Gain, but one track refuses to adjust. From what I have read it could be because there is a peak (audience clapping) at the end of the track. If I split the track into a different clip item, should that work? or is there a way of finding out where a peak is without listening to the entire track? I saw something like that but it may have only applied to FCP.

    I don't believe that there's a way to find the peak (or peaks) within FCE. But if the track isn't normalizing then there should be at least one peak somewhere.
    However, I have experienced audio anomalies when playing back and when exporting content with four to six audio tracks: at certain moments, the volume rises abruptly, even though such a volume increase is not present in any of the audio tracks. Perhaps FCE is incorrectly "reading" a volume increase at a certain moment, thus interpreting it as a peak, and therefore "deciding" that normalization is not possible.
    By the way, my solution for fixing the audio anomaly that I mentioned above was to process my audio in an external editor, as I simply could not get FCE to handle it properly, even after trashing my preferences files, trashing all of my render files, creating a new Sequence and copying my clips to it, etc.

  • Is there a way to make text bigger on text messages or is there a way to save messages on my computer so i can print them on my iPhone 3

    is there a way to make text bigger on text messages or is there a way to save messages on my computer so i can print them on my iPhone 3

    Zoom will enlarge anything on the screen, simply double tap with three fingers.
    To turn Zoom on/off go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom.
    Large text may also work for you.
    Settings > General > Accessibility > Large text.  Select the font size that works best for you.
    Printing or accessing text messages via the computer is not support.  Google it and you will find options.
    You can also copy and past the content into an email to send to yourself.  Then that email could be printed out.
