Daz Install Manager keyword filters?

Gator_2236745

Is there an operator that we can use to filter keyword searches like NOT?

For example, I want to search my products for Orc, but doing so returns a ton of dForce.  So I'd like a search of orc -dforce or orc NOT dforce, etc.

You can use Regular Expressions, e.g.

rx::ci::.*\borc\b.*

where the rx is telling the filter to use a regular expression and ci is case insensitive (ignore capitalisation), then .* just means anything (or nothing) until you get to a word bundary (\b) then orc then anothr word boundary and then anything else after it - so it searchs for orc as a separate word, possibly with other stuff before or after in the name. This is thanks to Rob.

Yeah, like that's intuitive!  
regex is tough to master.  It is even tough to decipher.

Have you read the documention for DIM concerning search terms?

I just assume that there isn't any documentation, or that, if there is, I will not be able to find it.

Awesome, that's it!  Thank you.

I did read that page, and no it didn't help.  I didn't want to filter by path, or order, or order date, or SKU, etc.

It does explain how to use Regex in DIM ("Regular Expressions" section at the bottom of the page) and links to a Regex tutorial.

Thanks Taoz. I should have added that link too.
