Re: [0.98.4] Quick search for categories not applying on DB result set
This is weird, I have just reproduced it. Categories are only the one from XnviewMP database.
Quick search in folder finds files that have the search string in file name and/or assigned category.
Quick search on DB result finds only files that have the search string in file name.
Re: [0.98.4] Quick search for categories not applying on DB result set
I don't understand, what's the difference between the 2 quick search?

Re: [0.98.4] Quick search for categories not applying on DB result set
The difference is on which it is applied, folder or DB result set. When I use Quick Search on the folder, the correct files get shown. When I use Quick Search on a DB result, e.g. when I have selected a category, then the Quick Search does not display correct files.
Re: [0.98.4] Quick search for categories not applying on DB result set
