Find 'string' (STRING)
Specifies the string you want to search for.
...
Only widget properties that contain the specified string will be searched. For example, if you specify 'border' for this string, all widget property names that contain the word 'border' will be searched.
Sub-property to search (SUBPROP)
Specifies widget sub-property name that will be searched. Some widget properties (such as "value") contain sub-properties such as "zeroBalance" (as shown on the Binding dialog) or "translations" (as shown on the "Translation Settings" dialog). The sub-property name as stored in the JSON metadata may be slightly different than what is shown on the dialogs. For example, "Show Zero Balance" on the Binding dialog is stored in the metadata as "zeroBalance". To view the actual sub-property names, you can perform the following steps in the Profound UI Visual Designer:
o Open the Rich Display File, which will be initially displayed in Design View. Click "Edit" on the ribbon to select the Edit tab.
o Under "View", click "Source" to switch to Source View. The JSON metadata for all widgets are displayed.
o Right click on the source and click "Format Document" to view the metadata in a more readable format.
o Press Ctrl-F to search for a particular widget and view its properties and sub-properties.
Example: Command "PUIFNDSTR STRING(12345) PROPERTY(*ALL) SUBPROP(translations)" will find all instances where the sub-property "translations" contains string "12345", regardless of what property the sub-property "translations" belongs to. Command "PUIFNDSTR TRING(12345) PROPERTY("column headings") SUBPROP(translations)" will find all instances where the sub-property "translations" of property "column headings" contains string "12345".
*NONE
No sub-property will be searched.
*ALL
Search all widget sub-properties of the property specified in the PROPERTY parameter.
character-value
Only widget sub-properties that contain the specified string will be searched. For example, if you specify 'translations' for this tring, all widget sub-property names that contain the word 'translations' will be searched.
