Tag Selection/Filters

Hi

(note been using this heavily as you may have noticed, Still very impressed even if nothing changes, Great program)

When I selected a parent tag then a child tag from another category it does not appear to filter with the other category.

ie

Holidays (Parent Tag not a category)

    Child tag Fiji Trip (i wish)

Family  (Parent Tag Not a category)

    Child Tag Kids

    Child Tag Us

If I select Kids and Fiji then I get all pictures of the Kids in Fiji (okay, good).

If I select Family I get All photos of Us and the Kids (okay, good)

But If I then select Fiji I get all pictures of the Family AND Fiji rather than a combination of both.

Am I just looking at it wrong?

Note  I tried also to Drag the Family and the Fiji Tags into complex search and it also doesnt work as I expect it (without worked).

Re: Tag Selection/Filters

Hi,

By default when mixing tags with children and other tags in one query the condition is set to 'OR' instead of 'AND', this is because usually when I select 'Family' I would like to see all images that contains family members and not only pictures that contains all family members.

The only way to do it is by using the complex search using the And/ Or option, Use the With(And) section for the 'Fiji Trip' tag and the With(Or) for the 'Family' tag. The Complex search works in 3 passes through the sections every time adding another filter so this should work.

Complex search dialog

Re: Tag Selection/Filters
Hi,

Just another question according to tag structure in the example above:

I select "Kids" and "Us". What I expect is pictures from both tags (logical OR). What I get is "logical AND" (v.1.21.3058)
BTW, according to HTML help ("image tagging"->"the tag tree"->"Tag filter check box") it should be "logical OR": "just check a tag (or multiple tags) to filter and see all images checked with the selected tag(s)". From non-IT user reading point of view "all images" is "logical OR".

Maybe there could be some "quick select" (not using complex filters): e.g.,
"CLTR+click" -- "exclude selected" (I like this)
"ALT+click" -- "logical AND -- images from other tags must have ALT-selected tag also"
"click" -- "logical OR"

Re: Tag Selection/Filters

Hi,

The ALT + click sounds like a nice option , I will do some more testing and try to give this, a reasonable solution

Thanks,

Asaf.
