Find Label

Searching for model elements using label values.

Context

You can use the Find dialog to search for model elements with certain label values.

How to proceed

  1. Select the Start>Browse>Find>Find Label command.

    The Find dialog appears and the Find Label tab is activated.

  2. In the Label drop-down list, select the label whose value you want to search for. You can also enter a name component.
  3. Select an operator from the Condition drop-down list. The operators that appear differ depending on the type of label
  4. Select the value from the Value drop-down list or enter the value that the search results should have, depending on the condition previously selected. The input option depends on the type of label.
  5. If you want to constrain the search to selected elements and their successors, e.g. a package, then activate the Only within the selected elements check box in the Search options group.

    If you do not do this, then the whole model is searched through.

  6. If you want the search hits to replace the previous content in the result region, then activate the Overwrite result region check box in the Search options group.

    If you do not do this, then the results are added to the previous results.

  7. Click on Find.

    The dialog box remains open to continue your search or add new entries. You can continue to work normally in the model while the search is being carried out.
