Exclude asset in search by metadata

Hi,
I'm trying to exclude some assets by a customized metadata.
The metadata is named for instance 'skipsearch', it has the type of 'checkbox'.
I'm using predicate to query the repository.
Here's my code:
type=dam:Asset
path=/content/dam/geometrixx
property=jcr:content/metadata/./skipsearch
property.value<>true
This works in single group, BUT returns empty when in multiple groups: (see the code below)
fulltext=product
group.p.or=true
group.1...
group.2...
group.3_group.type=dam:Asset
group.3_group.path=/content/dam/geometrixx
group.3_group.property=jcr:content/metadata/./skipsearch
group.3_group.property.value<>true
Any thoughts?

I too have this problem and I too can get the filter to work by opening the map module then returning to the Library. I think dj_paige is correct with the "sticking filter" as I can repeat the problem by;
- Enter map module,
- Right click on the filmstrip and selecting All Photographs
- Click Visible On Map on the Location Filter at the top of the page
- Enter Library module, and select Library Filter
- Right click on the filmstrip and select any folder.........the Metadata now does not work,
- Enter Map module again and notice the Location Filter is now set to None and the metadata filter will work in the library module
I hope this may aid Adobe in fixing the problem?

Still searchable after "Excluded from Content Search"

Hi,
I have a problem with the content search right. I want to hide the report object but i still grant access to it. I have created a folder to hold it, where the folder with no access right , only the object itself got access right. The user now cannot see the folder nor the object but able to search from content search.
I tried to put it into exclude from content search and run the indexing program, however it is still searchable. Anything goes wrong or is there any other solution?
Thanks a lot.
Charing

I do not know of a way to exclude a certain search attribute. Hence the name "search attribute".
Are you using a custom UI or the SES out of the box search? Also, how much data are you indexing?
Here are a few possible workarounds...
1. If your indexed data will fit in a VARCHAR2 4000 and you are using a custom UI with a simple FT search, you could create a single SEARCH column and under the covers, perform an attribute-based searc using just this column. Not the cleanest solution but this would work.
2. Append a certain # of characters before the value. For example, if the "organization" value is "oracle" append some random numeric before it such as "123abcoracle". Then in the UI or XLST, parse off the first 6 chars (or however many chars you choose to prepend) and you have your value. Of course, this assumes the chances of someone searching on "123abcoracle" are infinitesimally small. Again, not that pretty but it should work.
Hope this helps!

Searching Custom Metadata in Bridge - Urgent!

Hi,
Any help with the following would be greatly appreciated. I have created a custom xmp metadata panel that I am using for assets for a client. In Bridge, is there a way to use the Find tool to search for my custom metadata fields (as compared to the "All Metadata" search or generic metadata category searches)?
Also, is there a way to save these searches for future use or set up a filter based on custom xmp metadata? Similar to how Bridge's built-in keyword filter works but for custom metadata. It would be great if this could work similar to the current filter palette instead of using the Find tool every time.
Thanks so much!
Josh

Just was looking for this same functionality - was hoping I could add items to the filter and save them out as you were mentioning...

Help with searching custom metadata tags

I have written a Photoshop JavaScript for my employer which allows my users to enter custom information into metadata fields. My intention was to use Bridge to create a searchable asset management system for these files. However, I am running into several problems in allowing my users to search for images with the criteria that they are looking for.
My first thought was to create my own search dialog which then looks for files whose metadata matches the search criteria. I was able to do this and return an array of thumbnail objects, but to my surprise there does not appear to be a way to create a new window which shows these thumbnails? (without creating a new folder object and copying the files there which would tie up too many resources.)
My next thought was to create a custom namespace/panel for my metadata. This also works up to a point. I cannot seem to get my custom metadata fields to show up in Bridge's search or filter areas. I see the SDK example for creating search conditions for a custom node, but how can I modify search conditions for "normal" nodes (folders)?
I'm sure that many of you have run into these issues, there are several posts in this forum and others from people with similar questions. I'm not seeing much in the way of answers, however. Any information would be much appreciated.

I am no expert, in fact a total beginer with Bridge scripting.
I have also found that it a problem displaying the required thumbnails. To get around this problem I have used the label rating, changing all the thumnails I don't wont to reject.
IE:
var items = app.document.visibleThumbnails;
for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++){
var md = items[i].synchronousMetadata;
md.namespace = "http://ns.adobe.com/photoshop/1.0/";
if (md.Keywords != "") items[i].rating=-1;
This will only show thumnails that do not have keywords so long as the view "Show Reject Files" is not ticked.
I suppose if you used the rating you could copy them into a field that you could restore from.
As for the sorting I haven't done much with that except this sort of code should work on custom metadata.
new SortCriterion("MyDateSort", "date", "http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/", "CreateDate");
var mySortObj = {};
mySortObj.name = "MyDateSort";
mySortObj.reverse = false;
var mySortsArray = [];
mySortsArray.push(mySortObj);
app.document.sorts = mySortsArray;

Asset master search help

Hi
Hope someone could enlighten me on this.
In the asset master display transaction (AS03), when I select F4 in the asset field, no value is generated when the company code and asset class field is entered with a value. However when only the asset class field is entered (ie leaving the company code field blank), a list of relevant assets is generated.
When only the company code field is entered, no value is generated too.
Is there some limitation with the search help functionality?
Please advise.
Thank you.

Hi Hui
Check if you have authorization to display the assets for that particular company code. We also have similar setup that we can display assets only for particular company codes and not others.
Its purely authorization issue.
Thanks

Search using Metadata & Synonyms

In a document library I've added a metadata column, so tagging information with synonyms can occur.   However, I'm not able to search the document library with the tagged metadata or synonym terms.
I've created a new managed property within search, enabled use in scopes, and added the ows_ column from my document library.   I feel I'm missing something simple on this one.
Thanks in advanced.

Yes using the site search box.
Also, I've completed a full crawl.
Originally, I was working within a Content center template.   But, to simplify things I created a team site, and tested with a new document library with just 2 documents.

How To render content tree flex parent asset using search state tag

i m creating asset in flex parent and and i placed this in a tree tab. i want to get the attribute value inside level2 in content tree.
          For eg:
          1.product
               2.cctv
                    -480cam
                     -520 cam
               2.standalone
                    -hseries
                    -pioneer
Now i want to get the values of (480,520)if i render cctv...same way retreive attribute value (hseries,pioneert) if i use standalone
               how this possible using searchstate tag please anyone know help me.This is my code.....
<searchstate:create name="pro22" op="and"/>
<searchstate:addstandardconstraint name="pro22" attribute="AssetAttrl2" immediateonly="true" typename="HF_Attribute_A"/>
<assetset:setsearchedassets name="pro33" assettypes="HF_Product_P" constraint="pro22" fixedlist="true"/>
<assetset:getassetlist name="pro33" listvarname="imagelist11" list="listout" />
<ics:if condition='<%= ics.GetList("imagelist11") !=null && ics.GetList("imagelist11").hasData()%>'>
<ics:then>
<ics:listloop listname="imagelist11">
<ics:listget fieldname="assetid" listname="imagelist11" output="imag22"/>
<render:calltemplate tname="HF_3rdlevelProductPage" c="HF_Product_P" cid='<%=ics.GetVar("imag22") %>' ></render:calltemplate><br/>
</ics:listloop>
</ics:then>
</ics:if>

WCS flex asset model supports a concept called "inheritance". This means, all the attribute values at parent level can be accessed at child level. You can use this to search all the Product_C assets using an attribute at parent level.
<listobject:create name="lo" columns="value" />
<listobject:addrow name="lo">
<listobject:argument name="value" value="cctv"/>
</listobject:addrow>
<listobject:tolist name="lo" listvarname="matchlist"/>
<searchstate:create name="pro22" op="and"/>
<searchstate:addstandardconstraint name="pro22" attribute="AssetAttrl2" list="matchlist" typename="HF_Attribute_A"/>
<assetset:setsearchedassets name="pro33" assettypes="HF_Product_C" constraint="pro22" fixedlist="true"/>
The above serach state gives you all the products matching CCTV.
Hope this helps

TOP LIMIT FOR "OR" SEARCH IN METADATA FILTER

Would anyone know the top limit for an "OR" search in the Metadata Filter. Like if you are searching with keywords, how many keywords can you choose in the same column? Could it be 20? 50? I have an iMac with Mountain Lion 10.8.4 and Lightroom 5.
Thank You For Any Help,
Thank You,
Sandy

I agree with dj_paige. I just did a quick experiment with a catalog containing 627 keywords: In the Metadata browser, I added a Keyword column and selected all 627 keywords. The same number of photos were displayed as when no keywords were selected, which is the expected result.

Exclude chm from Search

Is there a way to exclude a chm file from the Search? The chm
file in question must be in the same folder as the master chm.
However, it is not in the merge files section (not a child of the
master).

Hi ghostwriter62
With .CHM files, search only works inside the .CHM you have
open. So if the .CHM hasn't been included as part of a merged
setup, its contents aren't (or I suppose I should say "shouldn't")
be factored into the mix.
Cheers... Rick

Searching Custom Metadata in Bridge

Any assistance with the following would be greatly appreciated.
In Bridge, is there a way to search within custom metadata fields that we have defined using the Find option? In the Find menu, under Criteria, I currently only have the option to search for "All Metadata" (too broad) or by predetermined custom fields like "Altitude, EXIF Color Space, Exposure, etc.". In other words, is there a way for Bridge's Find option to see the custom fields that we have defined in our custom xmp panel? Currently, I can't specify for Bridge to search within a single, custom metadata field.
Thanks so much.

I have the same question. I have a custom panel created and I'd like to choose my custom panel in the criteria menu in the find diolog box.
Any help would be appreciated!

Searching Prelude Metadata in Pr

I've been playing with Prelude on a new project, looking to add more metadata for when the time comes to edit.
I've been adding comments to clips (as suggested in the adobe video tutorials!) and those comments are apearing in the clips in Pr as expected..... but I can't find any way to search for them. How can I search the clip metadata added by Prelude in Pr?

OK.....
Have you used clip comments in Prelude?
While playing a clip (in Prelude) you can hit '2' on the keyboard and start typing a comment. This adds a comment field to the clip within a clip marker. You can add multiple comments/markers per clip if required, which is useful for marking several 'good' sections (sub clips) within longer clips.
These comments appear on the clip in the source monitor in Premiere Pro, but don't appear to be visible anywhere else in the Premiere Pro metadata panel or the Project panel (regardless of what fileds are made visible).   They also do not appear to be searchable within Premiere Pro. So, adding comments to clips in Prelude is only useful if you then load all the clips, one-by-one, in to the source monitor in Premiere Pro, because that's the only place you can see them (although they do appear on the clip in the sequence too ). It's extra metadata that could make life a lot easier, if only it were searchable!

TREX search - exclude full text search

Hi all,
is it possible, that I can exclude the full text search in TREX, so that TREX is only searching for filenames?
If so, how could I do that with minimal effort?
Thanks for your answers in advance.
Best regards
Joachim

Jochaim,
I created a search option set and in the Predefined properties i gave display name.
Create a search option and a search component and link these into ur search iview.
In the search option u can give predefined properties as display name.
U can have a full text search and an optional Name search.
Check this link for [Search Options|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cc/f4e77ddef1244380b06fee5f8b892a/frameset.htm] and [Search Component|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f9/b84d40cef71059e10000000a155106/frameset.htm]

Ability to search specific metadata (from all metadata)

The ability to search metadata is currently very limited.
I'd like to be able to search a specific metadata/exif field for text. In my case I want to search for any images that don't have copyright metadata but the scenario applies to almost any field.

yes it does

Searching exif metadata

Hello all,
I'm currently checking out the LR 2 demo and so far it looks great. The search seems to be very different from how it worked in LR 1.x and have a question. If I want to select all images with a focal length of between 10 and 20mm, is this at all possible and if so, how? How can I filter images on EXIF data as by default it seems you can only filter on a limited amount of metadata items.
Thanks!
Alastair

That's a shame. The data is there to be searched, why won't you let us search it, Adobe?! I know what lens I use - more often than not it's the Nikon 18-200mm VR. But I would love to be able to select images I've shot between a certain focal length with that lens.

Excluding navigation from search

Hi,
When I query for words which appear on the top level of my navigation menu, Ultra Search finds EVERY page.
How can I exclude sections of the HTML page from being indexed?
