Find Shapes Command

The Find Shapes command searches for and displays shapes that meet the criteria you specify.

To search for shapes:

1. View the Shape List.
2. Then, do one of the following:
   • On the Edit menu, click Find.
   • Press Ctrl+F.

The Find Shapes dialog will appear. Enter your search criteria, and click OK to perform the search.

Shapes which do not meet the search criteria will be hidden from the Shape List and the Map views. They have not been deleted from the file, and will reappear as the result of another search or the Show All command.
