With more than 1000 classes in our main project it is impossible to find a class to inherit from, a simple search function would be great. 

 

Please support partial matches, case insensitivity and regex.

Yep, all big lists really should be filterable.

Maybe ask a moderator to correct the title (inheritance, not Inheratance)?

 

Also, duplicate: Filter/Search for Parent Class Selection - NI Community

But still getting my kudos, I've lost hours to this GUI, and would love to see a search function!

For what it's worth, I usually go to the parent element, right click and choose collapse all.

 

This makes the list more manageable. But it only helps (a little) when you know the first letter of the base parent.
