Be nice to have robust system wide searches with names, fragments, tags, etc., for .vuo files, like QC.

In QC, you'd do this with a Smart Folder, right? You can do the same in Vuo...
Or am I missing the point of your feature request?
Well, Jaymie, thanks for
Well, Jaymie, thanks for teaching me how to use Smart Folders -- I'm a little behind on the depths of spotlight. It works as you describe. To do what I want looks like after I create the smart folder I need to first click on the sidebar item with my mouse then go to the search bar at the upper right of the finder window and type something to refine my search.
QC does not require a smart folder (though the searches are certainly "smart"). Cmd-O + tab takes me to the upper right search bar -- fast and convenient not having to click with my mouse on an extra item on my already cluttered sidebar.
So, I vote for having .vuo files (at least -- probably all files useful to working in Vuo) populate when using the basic finder search bar in the Open menu, without requiring a smart folder. As it is, it remains an empty window when I type something in the field.
@jersmi, thanks for
jersmi, thanks for explaining.
While trying to figure out if it would be possible to make the search bar work, we ended up getting it working! We plan to include this in the 1.2.3 release.
That's great!
