Search filter ignore dots "."

Post by PicNicNic »

Hi.

I have a question about the search filter.

Can I adjust the general search filter so that them ignore always the dots in filemanes.

So if i have files or Folder with names 12345,12.345, 123.45
I type in Everything 12345 and I get find always all Variation
12345
12.345
123.45

Sorry for my bad English

Thank You

Currently, you will need to remove the dots from your search.

The next major version of Everything will have an option "Ignore Punctuation" to ignore punctuation in your search and in filenames.
For example, with ignore punctuation enabled, searching for 123.45 would match 1.2345 12.345 and 12345 etc..
