searching folders and subfolders

[NBRU]

Support for searching folders and subfolders, that will be very convenient

[highend]

And why should XY find a folder name PNP when there isn't any?
And without ticking the "Path" checkbox it wouldn't find it anyway, even if your regex pattern would work...

smt tells me it's again about "integrate Everything"-story..

There are already scripts to use Everything inside of XY
I use a stripped down version without problems.

i just stated my assumption, as this wish is strangely described, but it's amt about searching and "Everything" is on the screenshot.(me personally see no reason to use that)

What is the meaning of RegExp PN\P?

I think (s)he looks for folder P under folder PN. (It should not be "RegExp" but "Standard".) But this does not work (neither in "RegExp" nor in "Standard" mode). XY drops the "\" and converts it internally to a search for name:"*pnp*"

Question: Shouldn't a pattern PN\P find a folder P under a folder PN? Seems natural to me.

[admin]

Well, it can be done using the correct syntax: PN\\P /P

1) backslashes have to be doubled
2) /P switch: compare full path with pattern

Question: Should XY be a little more smart and tolerant and accept PN\P as a shorthand for PN\\P /P? I mean, what else should it mean? Or am I overlooking something?

[highend]

As long as "Standard" is selected, it would be a good idea...

imo it's "oversmart".

In the next beta PN\P will work.
