Search current/activated fonts in the Creative Cloud app
I work in figma 95% of my time and I need to activate fonts on the Adobe Fonts site AND 'install' fonts in the Creative Cloud App in order to use them with figma. Sometimes I already have the font activated for my Adobe programs and I need to find the font to then 'install the family' for figma. The Creative Cloud app filters are only set up for recently added, newest to oldest (+ the reverse) and A to Z (+ Z to A). I need a quicker way to find the font than manually scrolling through a long list of fonts.
- Ideally, a search specific for activated fonts would be great
- Next best, the ability to expand/collapse the font families could help make the scrolling process faster.

Agree—this is long overdue, and would be an expected feature in literally *any* font management app. Even Font Book has this incredibly basic, but apparently overlooked (by Adobe) feature.

I second this. Essentially, there needs to be a search function to search for already installed fonts on the Creative Cloud app. There is currently no search functionality for this.
This is a seriously overlooked, and essential UI/UX feature for a creative app such as CC. Adobe really needs to address this. It's certainly not a difficult thing to add to the interface and push out with an upcoming software update.
If one has many fonts installed, it's a massive time suck, and nearly impossible to find what you already have installed. The only work around is to look in Adobe Fonts (website) to see if the font [family] is added. Then remove and re-add so that it falls on the top of the 'recently added' list. Such a bad result for something that really should have been considered at the most basic user experience level.
