Search modifiers - base path only please...
« on: July 02, 2002, 08:40:11 pm »

I am trying to just show all files in my "\My music\" folder without files in subdirectories.

I want to show only the files that have not yet been organized in subdirectories.

I tried this:
location="E:\Documents and Settings\Heine Munch Nielsen\Desktop\My Music"

But that also includes files in subdirs. I could manually exclude all the subdirectories (yeah right...) but I was hoping for a smart way - can anybody help?

The next build (8.0.318) will implement the search word "folder=" to search the directory only (without the filename)

So, you'll search for:

folder=[E:\Documents and Settings\Heine Munch Nielsen\Desktop\My Music]

Take care.

The new folder search is cool! Thanks

Tinitus, if you want to do it now, you can create a view scheme based on location.

I keep all my files lets say under g: with an artist\album scheme, but I also have a Downloaded folder in G:. So to find things that I haven't tagged renamed etc, I just open the view scheme by location and look for Downloaded. You could name the folder such that it appears at the top of the list if you want to be quicker to spot
