Refining a Search in Column View
There are several ways you can refine your searches in Column view. You can select
items in the Matches column to add the matching files for each category to the search
results, and you can enter text in the Search Text field to narrow your search to files
that include the text in their file path. Selecting multiple keywords in the Keywords list
narrows the search results to files matching all the selected keywords.
To refine your search using the Matches column:
m Click to select a match category, or Command-click to select multiple match categories.
To refine your search by selecting multiple keywords:
m Shift-click to select adjacent keywords, or Command-click to select nonadjacent keywords.
Searching for Files in Button View
In Button view, the upper area of the Media and Effects Manager displays a grid of
buttons, each of which is labeled with a keyword. The keywords displayed are
determined by the Keywords pop-up menu; the choices are Best Mix, Instruments,
Genre, Descriptors, and Custom. The keywords for each choice are fixed, and appear
whether or not matching files for the keyword exist. Keywords for which no matching
files exist are dimmed.
