    <p>The problem is that <code>tbs</code> query parameter only applies to a regular image search on Google. For example, if you wanted to search for cat pictures with a square aspect ratio, you could do a search like this:</p> <p><a href="http://images.google.com/?q=cat&amp;tbs=iar:s" rel="noreferrer">http://images.google.com/?q=cat&amp;tbs=iar:s</a></p> <p>But the Custom Search API uses a completely different set of parameters. The full list of supported parameters is shown in the <a href="https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/using_rest#query-params" rel="noreferrer">REST documentation</a>.</p> <p>Some of the tbs queries do have equivalents. For example:</p> <ul> <li><code>tbs=ic:gray</code> translates to <code>imgColorType=gray</code></li> <li><code>tbs=isz:m</code> translates to <code>imgSize=medium</code></li> <li><code>tbs=itp:clipart</code> translates to <code>imgType=clipart</code></li> </ul> <p>But sadly there appears to be no equivalent for the <code>iar</code> aspect ratio filter. I tried guessing a few queries (things like <code>imgAspectRatio=square</code>) in case there was an undocumented parameter, but didn't have any luck with that.</p> <p>The best alternative I could suggest is using <code>imgSize=icon</code>. This tends to return images that have a square aspect ratio, but with the unfortunate side effect that the images also tend to be rather small (the largest size I've seen returned is 256x256). Depending on your needs though, this may be good enough.</p> <p>I apologise if this isn't particularly useful to you. I'm not just trying to grab the bounty on this question, so feel free not to vote this answer up. I just wanted to let you know what I had found in case it was of some help.</p>

    1. COThank you for your research. I was also wondering if there was an undocumented parameter, and this is why I asked the question. I've not thought of `imgSize=icon`. This could be useful if all images were larger than 200x200, but the majority are very small.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
