Are you searching within the Object Tool? ... in Active Library? Do you have Ac18 Library loaded?

YES,YES, YES. Same for both 18 and 19. No pens and colors loaded in Archicad libraries. Search gets Pens and Colors 17 which is sourced from the Bim Components web site. Is this U.S. library issue?

The image you posted before showed you were searching the BIM Components website.

Stuart shows and was asking if you are searching in the Archicad object settings dialogue.
If you have the 18 or 19 library loaded you should see the appropriate object when you do the search.
It will also show you the objects in BIM Components (without actually going to the website) which appears to be just the 17 object.

I think this may be a US library thing. I only find and Pens and Colors 17 version as well in AC19. I haven't checked in 18. However, using the version from 17 shouldn't be an issue.
