How can I search for file types such as JPG, TIF or specific RAW files?

In Excire Foto, it is possible to reduce the display of photos in the grid to certain properties using the settings in the filter bar (top).
There are three buttons on the left to differentiate between RAW, non-RAW and video files using filters.
Sometimes, however, you want to filter according to specific file formats.
There is also a free text field in the filter bar (not to be confused with the prompt AI text search!).
In this text field you can enter path or file names or even parts of them.
Entering "JPG" (without the quotation marks), for example, means that only photos whose file name contains "JPG" will be displayed.
Info
Important: The filter reduces the number of photos already displayed on the screen. It is not a search function. The photos you are looking for must therefore already be included in the set of displayed images.
