Search term containing hyphen/dash in playlist doesn't return results despite them being present
-
- Find an album name with a hyphen/dash in it, e.g. "Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)"
- Make 2 new playlists with that album in it.
- From playlist 1, copy that name exactly (I love that you can hit F2 to make editable)
- In playlist 2, paste that name in the search bar. Nothing is returned until you delete the hyphen/dash.

@Sharky-PI I think that's because the hyphen is used as a "minus", meaning "exclude this from the search results." For example, if you want to search for songs by The Band but exclude songs by The Band Perry, you can type "the band -perry".

@Sharky-PI Actually, I just found a work-around for this! If you put quotes around the album name in the search bar, it will treat the dash as a literal dash and not as an exclude symbol.
