How to sort animations in order

The choice of animation is one big mess. How can basic sorting options be missing, e.g. by name?

Adobe kept it open and free to use instead of tossing it in the bin which is very much their normal goto

Yes it is (one big mess), but you can search by name.

Not the best (search an entire genre or a specific name) but switch from "Character Tab" to "Animations", then Search. It gets you closer to the "jump", "Snake dance" or "Thriller" move that you may be looking for.

 

I just hope you're not (like me) looking for "Walk Down Stairs" heheheh. 😞

It is still always a few subpages of the results, it is also difficult for me to guess what animations are available, I would like to view them all one by one, but then they appear in a random order, I have the impression that while browsing them, this order changes constantly what prevents me to review all available animations, it is absurd to put so much work into creating such a database of professional animations and make it impossible to view them due to the lack of a basic sorting function that could be implemented in literally 2 minutes!!

I totally agree with you.

 

There are several of us here who have asked for "Alpha Numeric" sorting, and Boolean Searches.

I don't want to go down the negative route, but I'd just note that "Hey, at least we're getting some good mocap resources for free?" (little shrug emoji goes here).
