You can scroll through the list of effects and animation presets, or you can search for effects and animation presets by typing any part of the name in the search box at the top of the panel.

The options that you choose in the Effects & Presets panel menu determine which items are shown:

Show Effects For All Color Depths: Shows effects that work with any color depth, not only the effects that work with the depth of the current project.
Show Effects: Shows all available effects.
Show Animation Presets: Shows all animation presets, including animation presets saved by you in the Presets folder.

The panel organizes effects and animation presets according to the option that you select from the panel menu: Categories, Explorer Folders (Windows) or Finder Folders (Mac OS), or Alphabetical.

Use the following commands in the panel menu to manage your effects and animation presets:

Reveal In Windows Explorer (Windows) or Reveal In Finder (Mac OS): Opens the folder that contains the effect or animation preset selected in the Effects & Presets panel.
