Title: Selection in Metadata Panel
Post by: HaWo on August 15, 2018, 06:27:54 PM
Im Metadaten-Panel können alle Dateien mit dem ausgewählten Wert angezeigt werden, siehe screenshot.

Ergänzung der Auswahl:
Wäre es möglich, dass nur die Dateien des aktuellen geöffneten Verzeichnisses zum Durchsuchen verwenden werden?



In the metadata panel all files with the selected value can be displayed, see screenshot.

Addition to the selection:
Is it possible that only the files of the current open directory will be used for browsing?

Why don't you apply a filter to the search result (in the result window)?
Other users may want to restrict to the contents of one or more categories, one or more folders, a specific time frame, ...

Hence I think this is better done using the already existing filter functionality - instead of starting to add rather limited additions like "Only apply to the selected folder" or "only apply to all selected files", ...?

A result window is a normal File Window and you can use the Filter Panel and the Search Bar.
Maybe not every filter needs to be stored. Else, the list scrolls.

I have changed this command to support both searching in the current scope (File Window) and the entire database.
