***Solved*** Icon font search (not urgent, just puzzling)

Hi Pablo.
Starting a new post as the last had 2 questions in it.
This one relates to the search option specifically in the Icon Font dialogue. I will attach another video, which should be viewable in VLC or similar. http://www.mfmisc.co.nf/iconfont.mp4
I am trying this on a 2nd machine of mine, and I am having the same issue as the first one.
If I open the properties of an Icon Font, and choose Fabric from the Icon Library dropdown, and then click Select Icon, all of the icons will display correctly, and I can choose one, and it will update in the workspace, and I can preview it and publish it. Perfect!
However, if I open the properties of an Icon Font, and choose Fabric from the Icon Library dropdown, and then click Select Icon, but then I type anything in the search box, all of the icons disappear. If I delete everything from the search box, the icons still don't reappear. They are all there, in the same order, as I can hover over them and see their names, but if I click on one, and click ok, it doesn't get passed back to the properties box.
I know you mentioned that perhaps it was a Direct2d permissions issue, but this is my 2nd PC, and also, Wysiwyg can display the Font Icons, in the dialogues and in the workspace, and it can publish them. It just happens whenever search is used.
Perhaps there is an issue with the search procedure in the dialogue? I know the GUI is 3rd party, so maybe it is out of your hands, but can you replicate what happens in the video?
FYI, first machine was Windows 10 Pro, 2nd machine is Windows 8.1.
Cheers,
Mikro.
