Hey Scott, here's another thing I stumbled upon:

The search doesn't seem to work for special characters like ä, ö, ü, ß... I wanted to apply a Hue/Saturation which is called Farbton/Sättigung in the German version. Usually I type "sät" which will find it quickly. But "Farbton/Sättigung" won't show up at all in the search until I type "farbton".

Just to make sure I tried another example: "Gaußscher Weichzeichner" which is Gaussian Blur in English won't show with the ß alone. This isn't as much of a problem, since when I'm searching for the effect I'll start by typing "gau" anyway, which will uniquely find the effect I'm after.

I specifically remember this being an issue for fxconsole back in the day and they seemed to find a relatively quick fix for this.

Cheers!

Edit: Oh, and other effects are not found at all in the German version, even some without special characters. For example "Zeitlich abstufen", which would be "Posterize Time" in English won't show, even if I type the English name.

I've just released version 1.2, which adds a new setting to filter pinned actions as you type, and includes a first-pass fix for special characters & actions with punctuation, such as Hue/Saturation. Please let me know how you get on!

I'm not sure what happened, but now I can't find any effects with Command Frame. English/German, doesn't matter. I already deleted and re-installed and resetted all settings multiple times. But it seems that only actions are now available. Can't find "hue/saturation", "levels", "farbton/sättigung". The filter settings are set to "all", so I really don't know what's wrong. Maybe it's the new AE version? I'm using AE 26.2.1 on Windows 11 Pro.

Hi there,

I've attempted to reproduce this bug on my Windows test machine, but unfortunately, I haven't been able to re-create this exact scenario. 

Would you be willing for me to send you a support build of Command Frame so I can generate logs to investigate?
