Search/Select Bar in Maya 2018?


#1

Hi,

I have watching several old Maya tutorials and I see this search bar used frequently. The search bar is used to select objects in the outliner at ease.
The only problem is I can’t find this section in Maya 2018. I already twirled all the sub-menu but I cannot find such feature.

You can see what I am referring in this link:

Thank you for your time.
