This is the first thing I'm looking at this morning, so maybe I'm missing it, But I don't see anything in there that helps to do the type of backdoor searches I'm looking for. This article spent 4 paragraphs explaining pinching and zooming.

I'm talking about advanced search operations on the photos filesystem of the type you used to be able to do when photos still resided within drive, not searching for photos of flowers.

One of them said using a certain prompt showed all the available commands you could use. I’m sorry if it’s not what you were looking for.

Are talking about shift-? to get a list of navigation hot key commands? That's definitely not what I'm looking for, but I appreciate the help. Have a nice day!
