Keyword filtering results that contains ALL keywords selected rather than ANY Keyword selected.
Hello,
This might already exists since it seems like such an obvious feature (also appears in other Adobe products e.g Lightroom) but it is the ability to filter files by multiple keywords with the results only showing result that contain all the keywords selected not just if they contain any of the selected keywords.
For example I have photos of different athletic events eg track; high jump; triple jump; discus etc. these also have the keywords for the country they represent such as USA; GBR; BRA; RUS.
What happens right now when I select the keywords "High jump" and "GBR" I get all High jump photos not just the ones that also contain GBR. So is it possible to add the feature to change the filter result to contain all the selected keywords rather than any of the keywords?
I am aware you can use the search function to search "If all criteria match" however you can't use the filter pane to select the keywords you need to retype them into the search box.
My thought was a keyword search pane which displays all the keywords the same way as the keyword pane (hierarchical) but this time to perform a multi keyword search. So in the future I can tick the keywords "High jump" and "GBR" and only get High Jump photos with British athletes. Perhaps using the keyword pane but having an option at the top if you want to apply the keywords below or search.

I totally agree and was looking for the same thing, but I just discovered: this is absolutely possible, using the "filter" function command-f, as the filter function can be set to address keywords only!

Necessary! Selecting two or more tags with the intention of narrowing down the result further and extending it instead is counterintuitive and unhelpful.
+1 Listen to the user, Adobe!

I suggested the same together with using the much better keyword panel as a filter: https://adobebridge.uservoice.com/forums/905323-feature-request/suggestions/44200659-use-keyword-panel-as-a-filter-with-and-operator

I would implement this as an extension, if the possibilities to develop things in Bridge would not be so grotesque
