Ignore accents when searching

[Mario]

Hello,

For the program when searching is not the same Alizée than Alizee or Beyonce than Beyoncé, so it finds the songs according to what was typed omitting the other results although it is obvious that it's the same artist. Is there a way to ignore accents when searching?

What is a name of the program you are referring to?

Also, if it is Siglos Pro, do you mean remote client or Add Singer window?

Hello Adam/Piotr,

It is Siglos Pro indeed, and I mean on the Add Singer window and on the Search Filter inside of the Database window, I haven't tested the remote client yet, but I assume would be the same.

Accented and non-accented letters are different and there is no simple way to make it work. But I have an idea how to solve this, will add it to the list of the features to come.

Thank you very much, it is a must feature since people tends to write the requests without accents and if the filenames are properly written they won't show up in the results.

In the meantime, I had to rename the files removing accents as a workaround, but this is far from ideal specially when they are thousands.
