Timeline Search and Filtering

The timeline track list has a search box at the top. Typing in the search box filters the visible layers to only those whose names contain the search string. All other layers are temporarily hidden from the timeline view (not hidden from the canvas — only from the timeline UI).

Search is case-insensitive and matches any substring of the layer name.

Clear search: Press Escape or click the x in the search box to restore all layers.

Filter buttons at the top of the timeline let you show only specific types of property tracks across all layers. This is useful when reviewing a specific type of animation across many layers — for example, checking all opacity keyframes simultaneously to ensure fade timing is consistent.

Toggle "Show Only Animated Layers" in the timeline header. When active, layers with no keyframes are hidden from the timeline track list. Simplifies the view on complex compositions with many static elements.
