Question

Currently using FogBugz Version 7.0.34 (DB 717, Build 1080)

Is there anyway to create more complex search queries?

Probably from 2 different angles:

1. Via the current Search string textbox. It would be great if I could search for a string in 'x' project or against 'y' milestone, rather than against everything.

2. I'd also like to create filter queries that allow and/or expressions, e.g.

Search for all open bugs AND enhancements, raised by Jo Bloggs OR John Smith for project 'z'

Thanks.

Answer 1

Check out Searching in FogBugz, especially the stuff on axis. Axis let you do something like:

project:x string

where you only want to search project x for string.

Answer 2

Filters are basically AND only, but you can add a search component to any filter to address any OR filtering you'd like to do. For your example, just add

openedby:"Jo Bloggs" or openedby:"John Smith"

to the search. You can use the filter for the rest or mix them into the search as you like.
