Xxx Edit All commands in the Drawing Editor

A basic concept: In a drawing that is not a crane placement drawing , objects that are on comment layers are fully editable. On a crane placement drawing, objects on any layer are fully editable, so long as the layer is marked " Show ." Since Xxx Edit All commands operate exclusively on objects that are on layers that are editable, any window that is opened using one of these commands is fully editable. So long as your currrent drawing has type xxx objects that are editable, you can use the appropriate Xxx Edit All command to open an edit window for all editable type xxx objects that reside on shown layers in your current drawing.

Xxx Edit All commands are object specific. Xxx stands for the name of the object. In the Drawing Editor , the Xxx Edit All commands are:

Angle Dimension Edit All (xxx = angle dim ) Arc Edit All (xxx = arc ) Arc Dimension Edit All (xxx = arc dim ) Circle Edit All (xxx = circle ) Cloud Edit All (xxx = cloud ) Cons Circle Edit All (xxx = cons circle ) Construction Line Edit All (xxx = cons line ) Dimension Edit All (xxx = dimension )

Hatch Edit All (xxx = hatch ) Image Edit All (xxx = image ) Label Edit All (xxx = label ) Line Edit All (xxx = line ) Pointer Edit All (xxx = pointer ) Table Edit All (xxx = table ) Workpoint Edit All (xxx = workpoint )

To invoke an Xxx Edit All command , you can click an icon or use a keyboard shortcut , the context menu , or a mode . For the lightning interface, configuring command accessibility is done using Customize Interface .

The selection of graphic objects that is made prior to using an Xxx Edit All command does not affect the operation of the command, nor does the command affect the selection. For example, if you have clouds selected, then Label Edit All , the clouds remain selected when you are done editing.
