Jump to Cue Search Feature

Jump to Cue Search Bar

The search bar at the top of the Jump to Cue menu will automatically filter the results based on either cue number or cue name based off of simple character matching.

Because of the simple character matching nature of these searches, typing any particular number will result in every instance of that number in both cue numbers and in the cue names. This can be particularly useful when searching for the beginning cue of sequences or when trying to find scene specific scene numbers.

Jump to Cue Number Search Demo

Example Search: "0"

Search Results:

  • Cue 0

  • Cue 0.1

  • Scene 10

  • Wait 10

  • Cue 10

  • Cue 101

Since cues can only contain numbers, any other characters automatically limit the search results to the description only. Character searches are also limited to exact matches, meaning that the more you type, the more exact the word or phrase needs to be to return the desired results.
