There is something about using expressions that I must be missing. If someone could explain why this doesn't work I'd really appreciate it. My understanding was that you can use expressions in View Scheme panes. I was originally trying to create a filter to display songs where [Artist] and [Album Artist] are the same.
In my View Layout, whatever I enter into an expression column works fine. The exact same entry above as a search item for the View Scheme pane gives me nothing. For instance, trying something even simpler:
[Artist]=[Artist]
IsEqual([Artist],[Album Artist],1)
Both of these work fine in the expression column but neither works as a view scheme search (entering via Import/Export). There must be something basic that I've misunderstood somewhere along the line but I can't figure out what it is. If someone can tell me what I'm missing I'd really appreciate it.

When using expressions in the search bar, smart lists or 'step 4' of the edit view scheme dialogue, you need to enter them in the following format:
[=isequal([artist],[album artist],1)]=1
use '=1' to see files that match the rule, and '=0' to see those that don't.
-marko.

Awesome! Thank you :)
