Hi.

Is there a search filter inthe prop selector in the timeline (it's probably not the correct name for it,see attached screenshot).

In projects with a lotof props, or/and props with a lot of subprops, it's a HUGE PITA to have to readthrough all those props to select the one we need. Sometimes we have toscrollthrough the equivalent of the height of 3-4 screens. They should be organizedby folders, like in Poser or Daz, or at least there should be a search filter.I know that there's a feature to automatically show in the timeline the prop weselect in the scene selector, but it's still a lot of reading through, andbesides, whatever prop is already displayed in the timeline disappears. Andlots of times we want to see multiple props on the timeline simultaneously.
Thanks

I've never clicked on that until just now when I saw your screenshot and couldn't figure out where that is from.

I go to the Scene Manager, which does have a filter, and select an item.

Then use Object Related Track, and the selected item appears in the timeline.

A filter above that does make sense, they have them everywhere else.

Yes. I know about that button. But like I said in my post, if you select something in the scene selector with that button activated, it adds a track for that prop in the timeline, but removes all others. And most of the time you want to see more than one track at a time. I guess I'll feature request that. As fantastic as iClone is, in my opinion the timeline is its weakest point.

I'm the opposite. I do want to see one object at a time.

Cool. That trick about double clicking the button works. I was under the impression that as soon as you clicked that button all other props disappeared from  the timeline. Thanks for the tip. However, folders in the menu (or indentation at least) would still be a good idea.

Yes, it definitely has to be improved. I listed some features I would love to see implemented to Track List Menu years back: https://forum.reallusion.com/FindPost375692.aspx
And I believe there are some Feedback Tracker tickets exist in relation to that as well.

Not reassuring that you requested that a few years back and nothing's been done about it. In my opinion, it should have been done in version 1.0. They do it everywhere else in the application, why not there? I'll contact the company about this.

I never saw the point of that drop-down list in the timeline, so I never use it. 

To make requests, use the Feedback Tracker.
