Tag Support

Post by butterw »

feature request : a Tag field + a search tags feature

Object : This allows you to create different collections within a single big Ant database and return specifically the desired results (for an html export for instance).

Ex Category : Western + Comedy + My_DVDs
I want to be able to return any sub-group (Western, Comedy or My_DVDs). Unless I'm mistaken, Sort by doesn't work because it doesn't allow a movie to be part of sub-groups.

It is possible using search instead of group/sort function (Menu->Movie->Find). Open search function, i.e. choose "Search in field: Category" and mark "Display results" (!), then search for "Thriller" or whatever .. and you will get a list with all films that contain "Thriller" within the category field.

Hint: You can hold search window open all the time and place/stick it on top or bottom of AMCs' window.. works perfect for me.

Yes, I should rename that to "Filter" :hihi:

You can use at same time that search filter thing and the "group by" feature, which gives you two criteria. But it is quite limited if you want more.

If you just want a tag field, you can use any available field (e.g. media label) and then do the search/filter on that field.

Renaming "Display results" to "Filter results" really couldn't hurt...

Other than that, works great. :grinking:
