Sign Search

I was trying to do a general search the other day using handshape and was a bit befuddled.  When I pressed the button on the left of Symbol Frequency, I thought it was an automatic index of all signs in the list because it was sorting by their SignBank codes, not graphics.  I was surprised when I went to the "little finger" and found it indicating only two signs, and those were fingerspelling when the list actually had at least 6 that I knew by variations.

Is this a glitch in the coding, or does the ISWA not allow for an automatic indexing of every sign by its components.   I expected a listing of every sign containing the little finger.
