[Added] Search for IPTC/XMP location tag

Post by Nicolas »

In the search options there are some IPTC tags available; but not the "location" tag. Could it be possible to add it?

Thanks for your great work, I'm only starting to (re)discover GC and like it a lot so far...

This is currently not possible. Because I can search only metadata which is indexed by Spotlight.

Thanks for your fast answer, I should ask Apple then, but I know the odds... I will have to find another way to filter my photos by location I guess!

Maybe you can add the location data to the keywords? They are in the index.

I can add a function for that if requested.

That would be great, it's a good fallback for my case and it could be useful to find tagged people for instance!
