Searching for images

Jnic

Hi all!
How can I search for all images in my library? - Aside of lots of articles I also archived several dozen images (created through "Save Image As Zotero Snapshot"). Some are 'stand-alone', some attached to a record. Now I want to do a 'search for all images' and don't know how.

I tried the advanced search with "Type is" but words like "image" or "jpg" etc came up with 0 hits.

So, a) what should I do to find only the images and b) for what is the "Type is|is not" search intended?

try this:

item type [is] attachment + title [contains] .jpg

this will only work if your filenames correspond to your attachment titles and your attachment titles include file extensions.

You should be able to use Attachment File Type for this, but there's a bug in RC5 that prevents it from working properly. I've fixed this in the latest dev build, so this will work in 1.0 Final.

Thanks for the answers.

Dan, if I want to install a newer version of zotero, do I have to uninstall it first?

No.
