search for IPTC "city" and "sub-location"

Post by cdk17 »

I am looking for an option to search for two IPTC fields:

city
sub-location


Exiftool (and irfanview) recognize these fields, but I have found no option to search for
them in everything.

Also a general question: Is there an operator for an "omnisearch" to search over all metadata fields?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Everything only has native support for a few IPTC properties:

Authors, Copyright, Date Taken, Description, Software, Tags and Title.



City and sub-location are not known to Everything.
I will consider support for them and a generic IPTC property which shows all fields.

Thank you for the suggestion.



City and sub-location might be available as a Windows Property System Property.

Check under Select Property -> Select Windows Property System on the left.
Third party property handlers can be installed.

Thanks a lot for considering.

A third related IPTC property might be country code. This has the advantage (over country name) of being consistent, even if country names are written in different languages.

Thanks for all the time you put into this. The program enables me to make deeper searches in my collection than ever before.
