Bit Disappointed Posted January 13, 2024 Posted January 13, 2024 macOS 14.2.1, Designer 2.4.0 build 2222 Search is case sensitive in regular text query mode, and I don't think it will ever be a criterion for anyone in layer names. If that's the case, it should be opt-in. Conversely, I can't get regex to search case insensitive e.g. /Affinity/i or /Affinity/ig debraspicher 1 Quote I simply no longer believe that there are any professional graphic designers here. Everything follows suit. Just everything.

If anything works (I haven't tried) it should be (?i)Affinity You are right that I should have used inline, which can also be set globally or locally. But I have no idea what is supported. Both methods are quite common, but neither works in this beta. I believe the best course of action now is to wait for Serif to fix the current bugs in a new beta, and to clearly and concisely announce which regex support has been implemented, especially if there are any differences that customers should be aware of. walt.farrell 1 Quote I simply no longer believe that there are any professional graphic designers here.

Bit Disappointed Posted January 13, 2024 Author Posted January 13, 2024 Well, maybe I used too many thumbs in my first attempt, who knows, case insensitive actually works with (?i), so thanks @walt.farrell Serif, I recommend the approach used by Microsoft where case sensitive search in regular or regex mode is something you actively have to enable as described in my post here: walt.farrell 1 Quote I simply no longer believe that there are any professional graphic designers here.
