Bug 513797

SUMMARY
Make it easier to search for recently modified photos by adding a direct “Modified X seconds/minutes/hours/days ago” option.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Open Advanced Search

Go to: Item Properties → Modified

The only usable option for recent edits is “time between”, requiring checking the current date and time and manual date/time input

OBSERVED RESULT
Searching for recently modified items requires manually setting exact date and time intervals, which is inconvenient and slow for common workflows such as face tagging, metadata cleanup, or validating recent edits.

EXPECTED RESULT
Provide a simpler UX option to search for changes made recently, for example:

Modified within the last: [numeric field] [seconds / minutes / hours / days]

This would allow quick and precise “recently modified” filtering without manually editing timestamps.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

macOS:
Linux/KDE Plasma: Zorin OS 17.3 Education
KDE Plasma Version:
KDE Frameworks Version:
Qt Version:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Alternative fallback (less preferred):
Add a button to set both “from” and “to” timestamps to “Now”, so the user only adjusts the numeric part manually. However, a dedicated “modified within last …” UI would be clearer, more controllable, and faster.
