Search & Find Layers Quickly

Hi! Once, watching a video I saw an architect that was able to search and find layers quickly within Archicad and select it just typping part of the name of the layers, and the layers with that name were highlighted ... It's a bit tedious to be up and down looking for a layer, specially when you work with a lot of them. 

Does anyone know which command is that Or if it was just a dream that I had?

In MacOS typing highlights the first layer name that matches the letter. It also works in other windows in AC.

I just dont understand why there is no Find tool in layers. In our company we have lots of layers and sometimes it takes a long to find. It should be (in Windows) ctrl+l ; ctrl+f ; type part of layers name.
