Is there a way to search for All Media (in particular, images) in a certain resource?
I know you can do a Media Search: Search All Media in {resource} for {search term}. But what if you just want to find all the images in a resource (or collection of resources), regardless of what text is associated with them? How would you do that? The Media Tool doesn't seem to be able to do this either.

Search (in a Basic Search or Media Search) for the special token #image

Thank you, Bradley! That's what I was looking for. Why is it that not documented in the Help file or the wiki? It should be documented.

And these three I've enclosed in a red box are very strange titles for three of the maps that I found using that search token in A Biblical and Theological Dictionary:
The first (marked "Partridge") is a Map of the Countries Travelled by the Apostles with the Routes of St. Paul through Asia & Europe.
The second (marked "Owl") is a Map of Palestine Illustrating the New Testament.
The third (marked "Preface by the Author") is a map of the World as Peopled by the Descendants of Noah.
Could you log a resource bug for these?

I already created a case for this.

They're the article titles for the article that the image was found in. (This is standard behaviour for Basic Search.)

I'll log it, but it may not be a bug; that may be where the maps were placed in the print.

Oh, OK. That makes sense then. No need to log it. Seems to be working by design. My mistake.
