fc.factory supports the ability to find Objects by name.
Searches start from the currently selected Object.
Selecting the Find ... option on the Edit Menu brings up the Find dialog, that allows you to specify the string to search for. In addition, there are several options that can be selected to help refine the search.
Find What | The text string to search for. |
Match Case | If this option is checked then the search is case sensitive. If this option is not checked then the search is case insensitive. |
Match Whole Name | If this option is checked then the search string must match the entire name of an Object. E.g. "pan" would match a Voice called "pan", but not a Voice called "pandora". If this option is not checked then the search can match a sub string within a name. E.g. "dor" would match a Voice named "dor" and a Voice called "pandora". |
Use Wild Cards | If checked fc.factory will treat the "Find What" text as a "regular expression" to allow you more control over the search, such as matching text at the start of a name, or the end of a name, words with numbers in, etc. |
The regular expression language used for fc.factory wild card support is the Perl Regular Expression Syntax. Rather than try and write up this powerful syntax myself into the fc.factory documents, I'll direct you to the Perl Regular Expression Syntax page for a description of how to use this powerful feature.
Selecting this option on the on the Edit Menu brings up the Goto Dialog
Item Type | The type of Object to go to. Currently only Patches are supported. |
Item Number | The number of the Object to go to. |
