Search Morph by name under Custom Morphs menu

Issue #69 resolved
Chuki Cicha created an issue

When dealing with many morphs, besides that you can separate them in categories, it would be better if you’ll have an option to search for a specific morph under this Custom Morphs menu, so instead of scrolling down to the morph you’re looking for, you just type it and change the value without having to open a category, and then if you want to go to another menu you don’t have to scroll all the way up till you can close that category.

    Introduced in latest commit. The display of standard morphs is also filtered by a string. At least the list of face units is quite long, and it is nice to just type in the face part (Brow, Eye, Mouth, …) and restrict the view to those morphs. The same string is used for all kinds of morphs. I don’t think this is a problem, but let me know if it is.

    It’s nice, but can it not be case sensitive? I mean right now if you write, for example, “mouth” it doesn’t bring the morphs which have “Mouth” in their names

    Yes, not case sensitive would be great. And being abusive, a button to cancel the filtering would make all perfect. Anyway thanks a lot for this new option! I was really missing it.

    Not sure about case sensitive. By typing capital A you only get the morphs that begin with A, rather than all morphs that contain an a. Need to think about that.

    You can undo filtering by erasing the filter field entirely. But you need to press return in the filter field to force Blender to redraw the panel.

    About case sensitive, I understand your logic, for sure is a valid point. But I guess it's not too organic. Almost all the filters I use in other programs are not case sensitive. But the most important, if I want expressions that involve Smile, type "Shift+S" will bring a lot of other expressions. I really would prefer type just "sm" to get exactly what I want or just "op" for Open for an example. Em resume, the filter of the DazStudio is a good example.

    About the button to clear the filter. It is really not needed, but we are lazy people and want to do the thinks the easiest and fastest way we can. So it's easier just hit a button to clear the filter rather than select the box, clear the text and finally press return.

    Anyway, the Addon is amazing and these are not priorities, if you could do it in the future it will be great, if not, don't care, we already owe you a lot for all the work you did so far.

    Now it's amazing, it can be faster if two buttons are added to "reset filters" and to "search", two simple square buttons at the right of the text field, with just an icon inside would be perfect, but right as it is, it’s fine
