I am always changing and adding little things. The best way to learn is just to look around. If you think a shortcut should probably do something, try it out! If you can't find something, let me know and I'll try to add it!

advanced mode

To avoid confusing clutter, several advanced menu items and buttons are hidden by default. When you are comfortable with the program, hit help->advanced mode to reveal them!

searching with wildcards

-

The autocomplete tag dropdown supports wildcard searching with '*'.

-

-

The '*' will match any number of characters. Every normal autocomplete search has a secret '*' on the end that you don't see, which is how full words get matched from you only typing in a few letters.

-

This is useful when you can only remember part of a word, or can't spell part of it. You can put '*' characters anywhere, but you should experiment to get used to the exact way these searches work. Some results can be surprising!

-

-

You can select the special predicate inserted at the top of your autocomplete results (the highlighted '*gelion' and '*va*ge*' above). It will return all files that match that wildcard, i.e. every file for every other tag in the dropdown list.

-

This is particularly useful if you have a number of files with commonly structured over-informationed tags, like this:

-

-

In this case, selecting the 'title:cool pic*' predicate will return all three images in the same search, where you can conveniently give them some more-easily searched tags like 'series:cool pic' and 'page:1', 'page:2', 'page:3'.

exclude deleted files

In the client's options is a checkbox to exclude deleted files. It recurs pretty much anywhere you can import, under 'import file options'. If you select this, any file you ever deleted will be excluded from all future remote searches and import operations. This can stop you from importing/downloading and filtering out the same bad files several times over. The default is off. You may wish to have it set one way most of the time, but switch it the other just for one specific import or search.
