Feature request: Track search feature

No.  Not at all.
 
But if you dig it great.

Yes!! I was just going to make a post about this when I saw yours!
This would be really helpful with big orchestral templates!!

I would like something along the lines of the 'track list' in Studio One. (on the left). 
Pro tools has something similar.
 

RESQ - Great, I'm glad you found this post! :) Yeah, it's a really cool feature in Cubase 7 that Sound on Sound's reviewer Mark Wherry really liked! ("...might be worth the price of the upgrade alone")
 
Anderton - Thanks for the tips, and I'm glad you have a workflow that works for you! :) Sometimes, though, one can really find use for a feature one previously never thought one would need... ;)
 
Now, I'm really thrilled to install the final 2017.04, I'm extra curious about the transform tool's scale, stretch & ramp tricks (that no one has mentioned so far?!). If they behave like in Cubase, this is going to be a major MIDI update! :D

Curious as to why. Is this really something you need to refer to so much that it's not enough just to open the Track Manager and locate the track, or hit shift+z to collapse all the headers temporarily? 
 
I did notice that the feature request mentioned projects with 234 tracks. In that case I can see how being able to type a search string could be handy, although with 234 tracks I don't know if I would remember all their names so I would know what to type to find them 
 
I think if the tracks are organized properly to begin with in terms of names and folders, then the Sort function would likely be good enough to find a track easily. I always make the first few characters of a name the most important identifiers because control surfaces usually can't display long names, so Sort works for me. (Although I don't always Sort on name...other attributes like Muted and Output can come in pretty handy.) Then again my projects rarely exceed 120 tracks.

Track Manager lists all tracks and buses, in a window that you can move around anywhere (like to a second monitor). You can also highlight muted, archived, and frozen tracks if you're curious which tracks have those attributes.
 
For a quickie you can just use Shift + Z when you want to see track headers only.

In S1 and PT and mixbus you click on a track in their 'track manager thingy' and the track is located and highlighted in the track/console view ready for mangling. No scrolling. 
 
I see Cakewalk's TM as more of a semi-permenant solution whereby things are organized for the long run. Plus it disappears. S1 and PT etc. it is more of a current real time solution to navigation and organization that doesn't disappear unless you want it to.

Personally my projects are no more than 30-40 tracks per project and I navigate fine through my projects, but I could see how a feature like this could be helpful.
 
What I do is use the Console view (With Narrow tracks) to locate tracks I need and click on them to show the track I want to see in TV. So I can totally understand where you are coming from. But remember even if it is in the Browser, its more one thing to take up space/or open and close) But still, I could see the possibility's.
