Search Function Not Working in Rig Manager

Joe_scaletta · Jan 6th 2015

This seems like a basic question but the search in my rig manager isn't working. I have the Kemper hooked up to it and when I type a keyword, it shows up with no results.

I have 5 profiles on my kemper, and all my others in the rig manager. I tried selecting both local library and all rigs folder with no luck. Even when I type in something basic like "a" no results come up.

after reading the wiki page on the rig manager it says that the name on the kemper must match the name in the manager. I bought my kemper 2nd hand and changed the name on the kemper, but I made sure that it was exactly the same in the manager. Idk maybe that could be causing the issue. And I dont know if it matters but my computer is not hooked up to the internet, but I have all he profiles imported into the manager. I have the latest version of the rig manager and even tried uninstalling and reinstalling

Is there something simple that I'm missing?

Thanks

As far as I remember the search function requires at least four letters, e.g. Mars for Marshall.

@Kempermaniac: That doesn't seem to be the case (anymore?).

@Joe_scaletta: The result is the main window. Let's say you start with 1000 rigs and you type "a" in the search input field the number of rigs show should decrease. Can you confirm that?

Thanks bigHF! I don't use RM very often...

This is likely a dumb question, but have you hit the "enter" key after keying the "a"?

and - did you accidentally turn off "view" for all the columns?

Right click on a column header - check "show all".

@Joe_scaletta that is weird. I am on OSX at the moment but will take a look at it on my Win VM after lunch.

@paults You don't have to press enter (I am on osx). Watch the number of rigs in the status line. It decreases while you type in letters.

@paults No Luck

Joe, you probably did not do anything wrong, and the search function has nothing to do with Internet connection or matching names. Please contact support.

I've contacted support and they can't recreate the issue so they said they couldn't help

I feel really dumb asking but... do you have any rig whose name contains an "a"?

also, how long do you let the app "elaborate"? Sometimes it takes several seconds here before the first rigs start populating the window.

I was able to sort it out, I removed all my profiles, uninstalled the rig manager and reinstalled and its been working fine

Good!
Not sure it would be needed to remove the profiles tho.
