This QNS
Code: Select all
Computer?:lbl:somelabel AND tags:sometag
used to search tag.dat database only, thus very fast (a few ms).
Now, it search all files in computer, one-by-one, thus take ages.
Strangely, if I shorten the search term to
, then XY search tag.dat database only.
Is this intentional? how can I make XY search tag.dat only?

This is from the help:
Search only among Tagged Items
Append the switch /t to the search term to confine the search to all items present in the tags database (tag.dat). Examples (ready for pasting into the Address Bar):
List all items (excluding any orphans) in the database:
*?* /t
List all TXT items in the database:
*?*.txt /t
List all tagged items in the current location with no comment:
?cmt:"" /t
List all tagged items in the current location without comment AND number 5 in ex2:
?:cmt:"" and ex2:5 /t

thanks. This works
Code: Select all
$Search = "%computer%?:lbl:somelabel AND tags:sometag /t";
Tab("new","$Search")
This works too
Code: Select all
$Search = "Computer?:lbl:somelabel AND tags:sometag /t";
Tab("new","$Search")

No, this is a bug, thanks! Your example should work without the /t switch. Fix comes.
