Selecting an instrument track by name with PLE

Cubase
#1

I don’t seem to be able to setup track selection by name for a VST Instrument.
Tried “Media Type is” Audio and Midi.
Tried “Media Type is” Midi.
Tried “Media Type is” All types.
Tried “Container Type is” Track.
No Joy.

Thanks Martin.
This did not solve my issue. I was attempting to select a track which is a VST instrument of Superior Drummer 3, this does not happen. Perhaps I am going about things the wrong way.
I use Global Workspaces, allowing me to have the same in all projects, however one of my workspaces has Superior Drummer 3 as a VST instrument the edit windows is open along with a mixer and of course the arrange page. The issue is:-
setup a Global Workspace (as above) in one project and update. Change project and the Superior Drummer 3 edit window is not showing in the same Global Workspace. I was guessing but thought that maybe the order of VST instruments causes problems here. Checked and cannot reorder these, so thought If I could select the track in this case called Drums (SuppDr3) I would then select edit instrument. This could all be built into a macro.
All I really wanted was for the Global Workspaces to transfer from Project to Project flawlessly.

Hi,

Then change the Name | Contains | HALion to Name | Contains | BFD (or how is the Instrument track named), please.

Thanks, Dont know what I was doing wrong but it now recognises a track called Drums.
