Don't Miss Out. Start Using the Find Navigator Today

Probably the single best thing you can do to improve the quality of life. Sadly, the UI hasn't improved one iota since 2016 😢

Edit > Find. Then, Operate on the Selection (use the drop down). Else, your life is more complicated - you choose View and then tell it how to filter stuff out.

For now, suppose we've selected a bunch of netlabels and want to change <*50>whatever to <*100>whatever (where in the world would you use something like this?)

In the Script field:

set string [property get -name Name -system]

regsub -all {\*50} $string {\*100} string

property set Name -system -value $string

Now, how in the world are you supposed to know that? Search me. Any surprise that Cadence is the top EDA dog?
