customizing default search item

[rra]

On XnViewMP 0.26 the default search item in the browser-mode is for filenames,
I mainly search for metadata, therefor I would like to have an option to
set ther search item to e.g. IPTC keywords.
I known I can search for these items using the tools dropdown-menu and then selecting add and so on.
This is cumbersome, especially if XnViewMP doesn't remember my last chosen items.
Is there some way to custimize the default search item ?

Hello,

...I mainly search for metadata...

Me too !

This is cumbersome, especially if XnViewMP doesn't remember my last chosen items.

I agree +1

Which last chosen items?

[oops66]

Hello,
For me it's here:

The last chosen items :
Tools\search\add>> \ the last criteria
(or maybe the history of the 10 last items)

and/or

Tools\search\add>>\IPTC\Keywords\ the last criteria
(or maybe the history of the 10 last IPTC Keywords typed)

The last chosen items :
Tools\search\add>> \ the last criteria
(or maybe the history of the 10 last items)

But you can save the search

[oops66]

Yes, right, maybe is enough ?, but maybe to save the last search is a good idea too ???
