Keywords

A couple of questions on keywords:



1. Is there a quick way to find images in the Library that have no keywords?



2. Is there a way to edit a mispelling of a keyword and apply that edit to all images that had that mispelling



Many thanks



Tom

there is.



Find all untagged images (courtesy of Sid Jervis).



1) make sure you are not using quick collection.



2) Grid mode / Library / click all photographs



3) Select all displayed images Mac ''Apple A''. press B for a Quick collection.



4) Deselect all images.



5) Now Grid mode / keywords / and shift click all keywords.



6) select all images in the grid, Mac ''Apple A''. press B to deselect from the Quick collection.



7) Grid mode / Library / select quick collection, they are all non keyworded items.
Keywords
Ctrl instead of Apple on PC

A mine of information or is it mine field !!

Many thanks - they were quick answers.



Geoff - I should have said that it was a pc not a mac so that suggustion will not work.



Tom

It ought to with Ctrl A on a PC

Try Show All Messages Geoff ;)

Sean, I was just answering the post by Tom that is now three up !!

Eat your breakfast!! Porridge is it ??

Geoff - on the pc under the Edit menu there is no option for Spelling

Tom,

To ''correct'' the misspelled keyword:

Select the misspelled keyword to show the images.

Select all these images

Click the ''+'' icon at the top of the keywords panel (to make a new keyword).

Select ''Apply to selected images'' and type the correctly spelled keyword.

Now select the old misspelled keyword, and click ''-'' at the top of the keyword panel. This will delete the old keyword and remove it from the images.



cheers,



jeff



Caveat - this is the way I've done it in beta 4.1. Haven't tried it yet in v1.0

You can select the keyword, then just double click (in windows) it, and it will change to a edit text box. Then you can just correct the spelling there, and it will apply to all of the pictures with that keyword.

That's the beauty of a database... :-)



Too bad that location data in the metadata browser can't be handled the same way.

And having no auto completion on those location fields doesn't help either :-(

Dot version maybe. Currently lucky to get what we do have, with all the work the Adobe Team has put in recently.

I didn't want to sound ungrateful. I'm very pleased with v1 as it is (and even was since b2 introduced cropping!).

Adobe will be playing catch-up with US! What with TPIs for ID Plates, and Metadata Browser Preset editing for the Right Panel!

Yep, I'm still waiting for the first plug-ins to appear ;-)

You mean TPMs, Third Party Modules?



No Plug-ins here!



Even though they are in the Plug-in Folder!

Actually the folder where they will go is called Modules!

Well on my Mac when I check the Contents of Lightroom (App) it still says Plugins or are you referring to a FOlder an SDK user would use?





Don Ricklin, MacBook 1.83Ghz Duo Core, Pentax *ist D

As a matter of fact I don't care what they call it, as long as they are ''things'' developed by third parties that enhance my LR experience :-)

Boy you got that right!



Hear, hear!

It is one of the folders at the same level as the Develop Presets. You can even remove modules from the Application itself and put them in the Modules folder.



They run slower, but probably because they are meant to be in the application.



I assume 3rd parties will have access to this folder, and I also assume it will be quicker to use!
