FIND/REPLACE setting

This is rather lacking in detail - please do read Guidelines for the Custom IC SKILL Forum which gives suggestions as to what is an appropriate level of detail for your questions (hint, specifying whether it's layout or schematic would be a first step, and the version would be good to know too).

However, it's Christmas, so I'm feeling generous. My assumption (from a bit of pattern matching) was that you are using the Layout Tools→Find/Replace in IC6.1.8/ICADVM20.1 (I used ISR29, the latest), and that you wanted to change the form to:

at the top. If so, this would do it - set your bindkey to CCFcustomizedFind() having loaded the code in your .cdsinit file:

procedure(CCFchangeFindCriteria()
  let((searchCriteriaField)
    ;--------------------------------------------------------------------
    ; Change to something else first to avoid keep adding more
    ; criteria if the search is already for inst
    ;--------------------------------------------------------------------
    leSearchForm->searchTypeField->value="path"
    leSearchForm->searchTypeField->value="inst"
    errsetstring(leSearchForm->addCriteria->_callback)
    ;--------------------------------------------------------------------
    ; The field in the search criteria is dynamically created
    ; so needs to find a matching field
    ;--------------------------------------------------------------------
    searchCriteriaField=car(
      pcreMatchList("^searchCriteria" 
      leSearchForm->criteriaScrollView->fieldList)
    )
    get(leSearchForm->criteriaScrollView searchCriteriaField)->value="inst name"
  )
)

procedure(CCFcustomizedFind()
  hiEnqueueCmd("CCFchangeFindCriteria()")
  leHiSearch()
)
 

It's a bit of a hack (since there's no clean way of initialising the fields), but it seems to work well enough in my environment.
