PlugSearch runs as a background process in the Finder's task bar. Its key commands are only active when Logic Pro is the frontmost application.
PlugSearch uses Accessibility functionality and priviliges to detect and act on Logic Pro's user interface elements. It does not interfere with Logic Pro's default functionality.
