mogsie Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I haven't seen this in other programs, but it would be great to be able to search for what is NOT something specific. For instance, search for what is NOT colour 0 0 0 100 CMYK so that I can make sure there is no lurking rich black.

Old Bruce Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 @mogsie, that would be a useful addition. I honestly wish the Mac OS finder would allow me to search for things using Not.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, but it is a bit more complex than it should be to get there: Click the search button in the title bar and search for some random text Click the "+" next to the "Save" button Option+click the "+" on the added iine (it turns into "..." while holding down option) Change "Any" to "None" Remove the line originally added in step 2 Set your criteria in the area below "None" Clear the text of the original search Old Bruce 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
