How Do I Edit the Location on DV Builder?

The short answer is to use the search function, like ‘control F’ on Windows or ‘command F’ on Mac, to find every instance of the current location in your project and replace it with your desired new location.

Full Explanation

Editing the location on DV Builder involves identifying all places where the current location is mentioned within your project files or settings. Once all instances of the current location are found, you replace them with the new location you want to display. This method ensures that the location is consistently updated across the entire project.

Step-by-Step Breakdown

  1. Open your DV Builder project where the location information is displayed.
  2. Use the search function by pressing control + F on a Windows computer or command + F on a Mac. This will open a search bar to help you find text.
  3. Type the current location name in the search bar. The system will highlight all instances where the location appears.
  4. Carefully go through each highlighted instance and replace the current location with the new desired location.
  5. Save your changes to apply the updated location throughout your project.

Real Examples

If your current location is “New York” and you want to change it to “Los Angeles,” typing “New York” in the search bar will highlight every place where “New York” appears. You then replace each one with “Los Angeles,” ensuring the change is comprehensive.

Common Mistakes

  • Forgetting to replace all instances of the current location, which can cause inconsistencies.
  • Not using the search function, which can make it easy to overlook some locations.
  • Overlooking the save step, which means changes won’t be applied.
