Hello,

I am working in Photoshop with thousands of layers within 200+ groups.

In Photoshop 2020 version I was able to locate spicific layer names even showing me what group this layer is located with shortkey CTRL+F. After 2021 update CTRL+F is now Discover option.

HOW DO I SEARCH for a specific text in a layer name and showing me what group this layer is in, not just the list of layers.

Thank you.

Does using the search in the layer panel work, when you change the dropdown list from "kind" to "Name?" See video here:

NO.

This option just lists all the layers, but I need to know what group this layer belong to.
