Description

Change Place Style may be used to change the style assigned to a set of places from the existing style to a different style.

The Change Place Parts feature provides a more flexible method to change place styles.

Step by Step

1. Choose Change Place Style from the function tree.
2. Choose the Place Style name for the places that you would like to change from the Choose old place style: pull down list.
3. Choose the Place Style name that you would like to assign from the Choose new place style: pull down list.
4. Choose one of the values in the Filter option: pull-down menu.
   • If you choose No place filter, all the places with the old place style will be changed.
   • If you choose Places that contain target, only places that match the target text in the target subfield--as defined by the respective controls--will be changed.
   • If you choose Target subfield(s) are empty or Target subfield(s) are not empty, only places where the target subfields are either empty or not empty will be changed.
5. If Use Pattern Matching is checked, the Target text will be treated as a pattern containing wildcard characters. See the description of patterns on the Find and Replace page.
6. Click the [Change Place Style] button.
