Select by Name isn't working - Latest Sketch 45.2 (43514)

[JWhiteUX]

Straight up, isn't working. Trying to select all layers named "Rectangle 14 copy" across all artboards (20+). Doesn't work on the same artboard either.

Second this in regards to "Fill Color" option – doesn't select anything within the same artboard

Same issue for me.
I fix it. Try my version.

This still isn't working for me, even with thierryc's version (yesterday). Of 90 artboards all containing the same layer name, only 2-4 are selected.

Please send me your sketch file to test it. (into a Git repo) if the file is not a secret file !

Thanks @thierryc it does work for me even though it doesn't get into the symbols and even though I'm on Symbols page with all symbols expanded, contents of those doesn't get selected by the plugin. But I assume this might be related to their unusual nature and your fix does what it has to do according to this plugin's work scenarios. Well done. Thank you.

@thierryc Here's a sample from the file. If I try to use the plugin to select all "Cell Background" layers, it's not working for me (it only selects 6 layers within the same group, not all 18 from the page). https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bwjern-kH7rjSGRjZEpLY0VUUms
