no line break in DrawingNote.Text

[AdamAG99T]

I'm writing some code that is attempting to edit the text in an existing DrawingNote, but it appears that using DrawingNote.Text completely removes any line breaks. Is there any possible workaround that allows me to replace a few characters in the text of a DrawingNote without having the line breaks removed?

Hi, check if this code can help you, change a word within the general note, do not delete the jumps, just replace it.
I hope it is useful for you. regards

oDoc = ThisDoc.Document

Dim TXT2Find As String
Dim NewTXT As String

'get user input
TXT2Find = InputBox("Enter Text To Find:", "iLogic", "XXX")
'look for blank value
If TXT2Find ="" Then
Return 'exit rule
Else 
'Continue rule
End If

NewTXT = InputBox("Enter Text To Replace   '"& TXT2Find _ 
& "'  with.", "iLogic", "****")

For Each oSheet  As Sheet In oDoc.Sheets
    'look at gerenal notes
    For Each oGeneralNote  As GeneralNote In  oSheet.DrawingNotes.GeneralNotes
		On Error Resume Next
		oGeneralNote.FormattedText = Replace( oGeneralNote.FormattedText , TXT2Find , NewTXT )    
    Next 
Next

Hello Sergio, you're great. That's what I thought, six months ago. You had to come to make it happen. Thank you. Sergio, you're very good. If you solve this you will be the best .-))) What do you think is a good idea? Is it Real for Autodesk? https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-ideas/new-bill-of-materials/idi-p/8358449
