jsampson45 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Is it possible to search to find posts containing both of two words only (Boolean AND)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I do not think that is possible any more, though I think in the distant past it was possible to use word1 AND word2. Now only OR seems to be supported. You may need to use an external search engine, and you could for example search for +spacing +words site:forum.affinity.serif.com using your favorite search engine.

Old Bruce Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Here on my Mac I use Safari for the web. I find that simply putting the phrase into double quotes works. This was the result for searching Everywhere, without the double quotes I had something like 90 pages Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.2 Affinity Designer 2.3.1 | Affinity Photo 2.3.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.3.1 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the result for searching Everywhere, without the double quotes I had something like 90 pages I got very different results, over 2700 without the double quotes & 16 with them. But I do not think that is what the OP means by "Boolean AND" -- IOW not a literal search for those two words but the Boolean And operator, so as @walt.farrell said that operator is not currently supported by the site's search engine.

MikeTO Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 You don't have to type AND, that's what it does by default. Here's one other trick you can use when searching is to preface a search term with a - "Apples -Oranges" means "Apples but not Oranges" Quote Download a free manual for Publisher 2.3 from this forum - expanded 260-page PDF Affinity 2.3.1 for macOS Sonoma 14.3, MacBook Pro 14" (M1 Pro) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
