Summary

Returns all text objects whose String Type property complies with the Query.

Syntax

StringType = StringType_String
StringType <> StringType_String

StringType_String must be one of the strings from the following list:

  • 'Comment'
  • 'Designator'
  • 'Free'

Example Usage

StringType = 'Designator'
Returns all text objects whose String Type property is Designator.

StringType <> 'Free'
Returns all objects except text objects whose String Type property is Free.

StringType = 'Comment' || StringType = 'Designator'
IsString && StringType <> 'Free'
Returns all text objects whose String Type property is not Free.

Tips

  1. The String Type property is only defined for text objects.
  2. The single quote characters (') at the start and end of StringType_String are mandatory.
