Keeping track of modules in LARGE project, search shortcuts?

I stumbled on a kind of a missing feature, or is it already somewhere there?

I'm debugging a large project and it seems I've misplaced a few modules there that still show up in the VST preset list. I can't find them no matter how I search.

Is there a way to quickly search for a certain module type in the project?

This would a great shortcut in many places, or is it somewhere there already?

I know various 'find component' ideas have been floated but to the best of my knowledge none have been implemented yet...

..to help with the specifics of your current problem, try the following:

Go to the first level of you schematic. Turn on the 'P'roperties panel for each module in turn and go back up to the main properties panel. When you turn on the properties for the module that has the missing piece in it, it will stop it from cascading up to the top. Then go into that module and repeat the process until you find the culprit...

Not ideal but it will narrow your search.

I did a similar thing and managed to find it already.

But yeah, some kind of "find in schematic" feature would be handy.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
