## Functions

### gdata_picasaweb_query_new ()

    GDataPicasaWebQuery *
    gdata_picasaweb_query_new (const gchar *q);

Creates a new GDataPicasaWebQuery with its “q” property set to `q` .

Note that when querying for albums with `gdata_picasaweb_service_query_all_albums()`, the `q` parameter cannot be used.

#### Parameters

q | a query string, or `NULL`. | [allow-none]

#### Returns

a new GDataPicasaWebQuery

Since 0.4.0

### gdata_picasaweb_query_new_with_limits ()

    GDataPicasaWebQuery *
    gdata_picasaweb_query_new_with_limits (const gchar *q,
                                           guint start_index,
                                           guint max_results);

Creates a GDataPicasaWebQuery with its “q” property set to `q` , returning `max_results` starting from the `start_index` th result.

Note that when querying for albums with `gdata_picasaweb_service_query_all_albums()`, the `q` parameter cannot be used.

This is useful for paging through results, but the result set between separate queries may change. So, if you use this to request the next ten results after a previous query, it may include some of the previously returned results if their order changed, or omit ones that would have otherwise been found in a earlier but larger query.

#### Parameters

q | a query string, or `NULL`. | [allow-none]
start_index | the index of the first result to include, or `0` |
max_results | the maximum number of results to include, or `0` |

#### Returns

a new GDataPicasaWebQuery

Since 0.6.0
