Can you search by field?
-
The search function seems very powerful, evidently searching within the ID3 comments field, and (per a github issue) the filename also, but I'm failing to work out how to search specific fields, e.g. track name, as opposed to searching everything. Is this possible? If so this would be great, not only to avoid getting various lower-quality hits (e.g. where the artist or filename of interest is mentioned in the comments of every track in a various artists album), but also to allow searching specifically comments or lyrics fields.
Thanks in advance!

@Sharky-PI In your collection view. Hover over the search field, and a box will appear that tells you how to do this. Most of these will also work in the listing search.

@rlkeeney RL do you happen to know if one can search the lyrics field?
I've started to manually enter lyrics for lots of deep house tunes which typically only have a few lines, and often an unrelated track name, so being able to search for
"specific sentences of lyrics"
would be really useful. The default search bar searches multiple fields including Comment but not lyrics, it seems.
Thanks for any intel!
