I too wish it worked this way, but it doesn't. I believe that this all takes places within Lucene, so there is no concept of single values or multi-valued fields. They are all just terms. The same is true with term frequency. In my case, I set omitNorms=true and then created a custom similarity factory with tf to only equal 1 or 0.

Is it possible to use the length of only the particular value in the array of multivalued field? It would be easier and more efficient in searching then. Regards, Pooja
