The file name filter allows for the searching of files with specific names or file extensions.
This search filter can also be used to search for specific folder names.
By default the filter will try to match the entered symbols completely, for example entering "DSC" will only work for one file (with the filename "DSC", no extension).
Therefore, it is recommended to use the wildcard symbol (*) to include any combination of symbols.
Example:
DSC*.jpg - will work for all jpeg files, whose name start with DSC
*DSC*.jpg - will work for all jpeg files, whose names contain DSC substring
To enable different extensions, simply use the wildcard for the file extension part:
*DSC*.*
It is possible to enter several name requirements into the input form, for example:
*DSC*.*; *img*.*; *photo*.*
The filter works in case insensitive mode by default.
How to search for a folder name
When the "use full path" checkbox is set, ImageRanger will find all files which full path contains a given string.
This is useful when you need to find files located in a specific folder.
