I'm writing a spotlight plugin to grab the metadata from the data
files that my application uses. The files are unique to my
application so I am exporting a new universal type identifier.
Everything appears to be working, the metadata gets stored and is
indexed and I've successfully queried it in multiple ways.
My problem lies in getting finder's spotlight search to filter on
this new file type. Basically when you start the search in finder,
you can click that little plus button and attempt to search "kinds"
of files. If you specify "Other kinds" it populates a pull-down
list of all sorts of file types that have associations with
applications on my hard drive. What I would like is for my new file
type to show up there as well. Besides declaring my UTI is there
anything else necessary?
have you got a Schema.strings file for your importer?
