Hi,

Please provide a search option in the plugins, I have installed too many plugins which I use regularly, but it is very difficult to find those from a huge scrolling list. it would be really helpful if there is a search or showing recently used plugins at the top

Are you on the latest version of XD? You can easily search for plugins using the Browse or Manage options. Click the "+" button in the plug-ins panel to get started. See https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/xd/help/plugins.html for more info.

I'm not saying about searching a plugin and installing,  I'm saying that it is difficult to find a plugin after you have installed them when you have too many plugins installed, see the screenshot there are so many plugins and its difficult to find the one I want from this list

I was hoping Preran's answer would be sufficient, but actually expecting the worse: you're really using a ton of installed plug-ins, and want to quickly search and find them by typing a (partial) name. Just like fonts behave when you start typing a font's name. And it would be nice if it would not just restrict itself to just the exact name (from the beginning) but any part of the name, or even more sensible: a meta-tagged keyword.

 

It might also be a good idea to let users manage their Plugins panel visually, by arranging them in their own preferred sequence, in stead of just an alphabtical list (just like with the Assets panel). Or even by grouping them in folders.
