How to Search Inside Pixelmator Pro Files on Mac
You remember the design. A product photo with a pink background. A poster with mountains. A social media graphic you made for a client last year.
But where did you save it?
Your folders contain Untitled.pxd, Design_v3.pxd, and Final_really_final.pxd. Finding the right project means opening files, checking them, closing them, and trying again.
Fenn lets you find Pixelmator Pro projects by describing what you remember. Less time hunting through folders. More time working on the design.
Search for the design you remember
Fenn supports Pixelmator Pro’s .pxd files and makes your artwork searchable by its visual content.
You can try searches like:
“Perfume bottle on a pink background”
“Mountain poster with an orange sky”
“Black and white portrait”
“Coffee cup beside a notebook”
You don’t need to remember the exact filename or which client folder you used. Describe the image, browse the matching results, and find the project you need.
Stop renaming everything just to find it later
A filename can only tell you so much.
Campaign_final.pxd might have made perfect sense when you saved it. Six months later, it tells you almost nothing about the design inside.
Renaming every project with its subject, colors, client, and purpose becomes another job. And you still have to guess which words you used.
With Fenn, you can search using what you remember about the artwork. Your existing files become easier to find without spending a weekend reorganizing your archive.
Put your past work back to use
A client asks for another version of an old campaign. You want to reuse a product composition. You remember a visual direction that would fit a new brief.
That work already exists. Finding it should be easier than recreating it.
Fenn helps you retrieve past designs across the folders you choose, so your Pixelmator Pro archive becomes a useful resource for your next project.
How to get started
Download Fenn on your Mac.
Add the folders containing your Pixelmator Pro projects.
Enable Pixelmator Pro in Fenn’s file types and let Fenn index your files.
Search for something you remember about a design.
You can keep your original .pxd files. There is no need to export every project as a JPEG or PNG to make it searchable.
Your client work stays private
Unreleased campaigns, client photography, and personal projects deserve privacy.
Fenn runs locally on your Mac by default. Your designs can be indexed and searched without uploading them to a cloud AI service.
Try Fenn and spend more time creating, less time looking for what you already created.
