Hail,
Any idea as to how one would search for any (as opposed to a
specific character) colored (other than the intended) text?
Searching for any text of a specific color is easy but I would like
to find any text that is not black.
Hi Rick,
There are details in the knowledgebase at http://
mindmeld.cybersite.com.au that shows
how to do such a search. You can do it using the Find&Replace tool
in OOo.
Hi Rick,
Sorry, I jumped in ahead and thought you were searching for a
specific colour
in your text. The simplest way I would see it (if it is possible,
have not checked this
yet) is to find the main text colour, then inverse the selection.
Can OOo inverse
its selection? I will have to check that one :)
OK. Now that I have had a chance to look at OOo and see how it is
done, it is
actually quite simple. Assuming that the default text is NOT what you
want
selected, then go to Find&Replace, click on "More Options" and then
choose
the "Attributes" button. In the list that appears, select the "Font
Color" option
and then simply hit "Find All" to have all the non-default text
selected.
Regards
Jonathon
