    Hi Everyone,

    This functionality is available in our latest release build – 27.6.1. 


    The new functionality allows searching layers by name using the searchbar in the layers panel. The users can also apply filters based on layer properties (locked, hidden etc) or objects properties (effects, text etc.). This will help to quickly find layers/objects for large documents (having multiple layers).

    Thank you for all the feedback.

    I use a lot of layers in my Ch projects, and finding all of the elements that have the same name is vital to making my characters work. This feature is in Ch but not in Illustrator. Not being able to search layers is a massive slowdown.

    Should have the option to select just layers, or groups, or both.
