Hi, for speed reasons, metadata is not fully parsed and not available to the search for local photos. The only searchable tags are the one added (manually/automatically) in Shotwell.
On the bright side, this might be fixed for 14.04. Also, if you use the Flickr or Picasa integration for the lens, you can actually search via most metadata fields. ** Changed in: unity-lens-photos (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1256286 Title: Search for photo using XMP metadata shows no results To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-lens-photos/+bug/1256286/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
