You can write expressions in the FlexiLayout language to specify element properties, and you can specify additional search constraints on the Advanced tab of the element’s Properties dialog box. Find and replace runs on the code of the current element and all of its subelements. To run it on the code of all elements, select the FlexiLayout (that is, the root element in the tree). To run it on only one layout alternative, select that alternative in the tree. This feature is useful, for example, when replacing the name of an element, since you do not have to open the Advanced tab in the properties of each element individually.
