Search "IMG" not working, please see video

Post by food98231 »

I just installed this so I do not have the knowledge to describe my problem very well. Please see the attached video.

I'm trying to search for a bunch of IMG_0000.png files. When I search IMG, it doesn't return any of those images, but it does return stuff with "img" in the filename. When I search for the file exactly, it shows. But if I try to search "IMG_" it returns nothing.

What's wrong? Assistance is greatly appreciated.

Please take note of the search state shown at the right of the status bar.
Is WHOLEWORD shown?

Please try unchecking Match Whole Words from the Search menu.

Not sure what status bar you are talking about.

I unchecked Match Whole Words and now the files I want show up. Thank you.

WHOLEWORD is shown at the bottom right of the status bar. (when Search -> Match Whole Words is checked)
