Using the Compendium to create 2 letter Monsters

Edited 1536649081
Hey, maybe I'm being thick or roll20 isnt working for me right now buuut:  I wanna create the character sheet and token for the "ox". usually I search for the creature I need and then drag the name onto the map. this gives me the token and the character sheet for the monster. But because the search starts working with 3 letters i can not do that for the ox.  My next thought was to find the ox via the "creature by name/type" option and I do find the tokens there, at least I can see 2 pictures in the compendium entry but I cant drag those on the map and it also doesnt give me the character sheet for it.  So I do I get the ox character sheet? (the ox is in volo's btw) Thank you in advance! PS: i posted this in technical cuz the 2 letter search is giving me trouble. sorry if this isnt quite right but It seemed the best fit.

It's a workaround, but in the compendium you can click Monsters, or search for Category:"Monsters" and scroll down to the ox sheet.
Ox is a variant of a cow in 5e through Volos Guide to Monster, maybe you need to search for it that way. I don't have VGtM on Roll20 so I don't know for certain.

Due to 3 character limit in searches this is your best option, you can use 'filter results' to add a 'beast' category to the search which will save time on scrolling but Ox is certainly there as it's own entry... I'll ping a Dev so that they are aware of these niche case limitations. Thanks for the report.

I have submitted a ticket to the devs about this so we can see to making this easier :)
