Search using the find bar

The Find bar performs quick searches when you drag keyword tags onto it. When not in use, the find bar is a horizontal bar above the Photo Browser. When you drag a tag onto it, the find bar automatically expands so that you can see the keyword tags you’ve added to the search. To refine a search, drag more keyword tags onto the find bar. You can also use the find bar to search for the photos used in an album or project.

Dragging a keyword tag onto the Find bar

  1. Make sure that the Photo Browser and the Keyword Tags palette are open.
  2. Drag a tag onto the find bar. The search starts immediately, and the Find bar expands to show the tag it is using to perform the search.
  3. (Optional) Drag more keyword tags onto the find bar to refine your search. You can drag more than one tag to the find bar at a time. Shift-click to select adjacent keyword tags or Control-click to select nonadjacent tags.
  4. To start a new search, right-click a tag, category, or subcategory and choose the New Search Using [tag, category, or subcategory name] command from the context menu.
  5. To close the Find bar, click Show All.
