Searching with Photo Supreme

Hybrid Searches

This manual covered how to use both the Search Bar and the Dynamic Search Panel. Each tool has its own advantages: the Search Bar offers flexibility and speed, allowing you to quickly search through large amounts of data without needing to know the exact location of the information.

You can use Search Bar results directly in the Dynamic Search Panel to refine your searches. This is especially handy for finding items that aren’t fully cataloged.

For example, if a friend sends you photos and has added his name in the metadata, you can find them by searching his name in the Search Bar. Once the results appear, you can add them to the Dynamic Search Panel and combine them with other labels or timeline items to narrow your search.

How to do it:

1. Enter Michael in the Search Bar and press Enter.
2. Hold Ctrl (Windows) or Cmd (macOS) and click the Favorites button to add the results to the Dynamic Search Panel.
3. Drag in any additional catalog labels you need.
4. Run the query to see refined results.
