I hate scrolling thru dozens of colors. In X6 you could easily type in the PMS number. Where is that feature in X8?
Agreed! Not an improvement when you have to dig around. Used to be super easy!

In the Edit Fill dialog, you can just type in the "Name" box, and it updates the visible palette on-the fly as you type. I think that's a nice way to do it, but I don't know if they use that anywhere else in the UI. In other parts of the UI, when a spot palette is displayed, they show a tint slider - so why not also show a search box? Way more discoverable.

I don't like everything about 2019, but I think they have actually made some improvements there.
FWIW, Shift+clicking any color in a Pantone palette (in Object Properties for example, or an open palette) will still bring up a Find box where you can type the number you are looking for.
