"Find by Label: (None)" doesn't work

Post by elqasar2 »

I have a directory where I've labelled different sets of files with different colors. Some of the files don't have any label.

Using the toolbar button 'Find by Label' I can search for each of the colors successfully. (I'm using the option 'Search Here').

But if I choose 'Find by Label: (None)', which does the search 'lbl:"" /n' then it doesn't find anything. I'm expecting it to show me all the files in the current location that don't currently have any label.

I'm using XYplorer 19.70.0106.

It only finds items without any Label but being in tag DB (having Tags or a Comment...). That's probably an unexpected restriction. I will change it...

Thank you. I will try it out in the next official version.

I downloaded Beta 19.70.0118 and tried it out for each of the 3 search options that can be chosen from the Find by Label button. All looks good, except I must say, the behavior for 'Search Everywhere' is not quite what I expected. After double-clicking on the Quick Search bar to 'Remove Search', instead of being returned to the location where I was beforehand, I'm instead returned to 'This PC'. I know that the search was performed on the whole PC, but I would expect that removing the search would return me to where I was beforehand.

Use F7 instead.

F7 works, but I still think that 'Remove Search' should also return to the location I was in beforehand.

'Remove Search' goes to the searched location. It's the law.
