Search string needed

Post by nice_guy »

Want to find all files with:
DoppelBett - but not - Doppelbett

Not working:
DoppelBett !Doppelbett

Any help for me?
(thanks)

Try one of the following:

doppelbett !case:Doppelbett

Will find all case-insensitive doppelbett variations, but excludes "Doppelbett" case. So it will also find DoPPeLBeTT, for example
case:DoppelBett

Will just find DoppelBett. All other variations -- like DoPPeLBeTT and Doppelbett -- will be ignorde.

Instead of case:DoppelBett, you can also just type DoppelBett in the search bar and enable Match Case from the menu (Menu => Search => Match Case)
Don't forget to uncheck Match Case afterwards, to prevent unexpected search results :)
