Text search and replace

[revit.wishlist1942]

Summary: Ability to search all text per view as you can with the AutoCAD FIND command that allows a general search of text and replacing the text.

Description: Ability to search all text per view as you can with the AutoCAD FIND command that allows a general search of text and replacing the text.
This is similar to spell check except it finds each instance of the same text you're looking for in the entire view.

How Used: It would be used to mass update multiple text notes and schedules quickly. For instance, if all instances of the note 3 5/8" needed to be changed in all 12 wall sections to 4" this command would be perfect for finding each instance of 3 5/8" and allowing you to change it to 4".

Feature Affinity: Annotation tools

This would be really nice!! We are always changing wall section notes at the last minute. If we had this functionality it would save hours of flipping though every section to change one word in a repetitive call-out note.
