Default Search - Insert slots not working

Hi all,
Using PT Ultimate 2020.9.0 (Mojave 10.14.6) and I am not able to utilise the search function (selecting an insert slot and typing the name of a plug etc).
I have to navigate the sub menu to "Search" before typing the name of a plugin.
Though it is not a show stopper, I had become very used to it, so it's just annoying.

It was working fine up until this week and the only thing I have done is upgraded Izotope RX (Post Production Suite 5).

Has anybody else come across this issue?

Regards,
Matt

I've actually been noticing this. Seems to happen randomly for me.

When it happens the drop down menus for inserts, sends, and I/O are color inverted, with a light background and black text instead of a dark background and light text.

Quitting and relaunching Pro Tools seems to fix it, but closing and reopening the session doesn't.

Yeah, that's the one....

BTW, I just had a crash (video engine) and now it is back to normal. Mmm

Hi Matt
Perhaps it’s a Mac-only bug
‘Search Insert’ (by typing name in slot) works in Pro Tools 2020.9.1 Vanilla on Windows
(I never installed 2020.9)
Screenshot shows RX8
FWIW, spent 5 hours yesterday without a video crash
I’m liking 2020.9.1 so far!

I am experiencing crashes (always) when attempting to search for inserts on PT 2020.9.1 on Windows 10. Anyone else?

Not a single crash here(also on Windows) and I've been using the search function quite a bit over the last several days

I think I've narrowed it down to the Guardian Angel utility app that clears the automation warning windows. As soon as that app clears an automation warning, the insert drop down menu goes white and automatic search by typing is disabled. I haven't updated to 2020.11 yet, so I'm curious if this affects dark mode.

That is interesting, however, doesn't apply in my situation, as I do not have the "Guardian Angel" utility you speak of (actually I have never heard of it).
I haven't seen the issue aristocrat's on 2020.11 as yet.
