The back ground to this post is that I have been having problems with my copy of Capture One on my mac. As a new convert to C1 it is likely that some of the problems I am suffering from are self induced and or my lack of knowledge.
If I enter text in the search field the list of found images is presented and updated with each character that is entered. However, when I specify that I only want to search the keyword field the behaviour changes. No search is conducted until I change the option in the type field e.g. from contains to does not contain.
So to be clear if I wish to list all the images with the keyword "portrait" I open the search pane and select keyword from the dropdown, then contains from the next dropdown then lastly I enter "port" into the search field. At this stage no images are listed. This seems odd as it is counter to how the wider "anywhere" search operates.
I have created this video of the problem / feature which may be downloaded from this link, its 10 MBytes.

Is this how your copy of Capture One operates?
