Searcher brings the “Search Everything” functionality found in many modern Content Creation Suites and IDE’s such as JetBrains ‘Shift+Shift’ search (PyCharm, Rider, Webstorm, etc), Blender, Maya, and many others, to Houdini.

Allowing you to quickly locate and execute any menu item or hotkeyable action without the need to assign, memorize, or manage hotkeys.

Fuzzy, abbreviated, partial search

Search and open/execute menu items and commands right from the search window without having to dig through nested menus or remember hotkeys.
