Lightroom :: Find Images With Parent Keyword Tag Only?

Mar 2, 2007

I want a keyword hierarchy with "US" as parent keyword of 50 states name keywords. I have many images with state keywords, but I also have some images that are tagged only with "US" but no state tag, as they are not specific to a state.

How do I *easily* find only the images tagged "US" but with no state tags? Clicking on "US" in the keyword panel shows me all images tagged with "US" and all with state tags, but I just want the ones tagged "US".

I can use "Find" to find "US" images NOT CONTAINING "AL AK AR AS AZ..." by enumerating all 50 states, but that's a terribly awkward way filter out images tagged with state names. I can't see a button or filter that shows only the images with a parent tag but without child tags.

Lightroom :: Add Child Keyword To Image But Exclude Parent

Jan 13, 2014

I'have just imported all my photo's. They are mostly already keyworded but I have a slight problem. They range over the last 50 years so I have ended up with 50 "year" keywords, i.e. 1970, 1971, 1972 etc.
 
In order to tidy this up I though I'd create a "Year" parent keyword and have all those entries as children to it.
 
This would work bu how could I have a year keyword but not the parent name "Year" in the keyword list? Or at least not have it there when the image is exported.

Lightroom :: How To Create A Multi Word Keyword

Jun 10, 2013

How do you join a multi-word keyword so it is recognized as one keyword? i.e. If you want "New York", not "New" and "York." Do you put it in quotes? Isolate it with commas? Other?
 
Ocean View
Ocean Front
Over the Water
 
I try to do this in Library Mode, Keyword Creation box, I get 2 words.
 
Example, I type Los Angeles and get:  Angeles, Los
 
Nothing I try works.  I know it is common since I imported 200,000 images and I see lots of word combos used as keywords.
 
I read the manual, looked at tutorials, read an existing thread on this, can't find the simple answer. I am about to start keywording my 200,000 images from the last 12 years, I need to learn this at the get go...

Lightroom :: Focus Jumps To Keyword Filter Box When Clicking A Keyword

Aug 17, 2010

Long, long, keyword hierarchy.  Clicking on a keyword takes the focus back up to the keyword filter box.  Usually happens if I've used the filter box to narrow down the keywords that are visible. Continues even after the filter box has been cleared.  Doesn't happen all the time though.  It is a real pain when trying to double click a keyword to edit it as the first click or the double click causes the list to refresh showing only the top entries.  The second click (of the double click) then causes whatever keyword is now under the pointer to be keyword to be edited - NOT the keyword under the pointer when I started the double click.
 
I've seen this happen in both LR3.0 and LR3.2RC.
 
Windows XP, 32bit.

Lightroom :: Syncing Keyword Changes To LR3 Catalogs Among Different Users (using A Common Keyword Set)

Jul 5, 2012

I'm new to LightRoom and am glad to have found this great resource. Onto the issue at hand:
 
An ongoing office project is using LR3 to catalog 30 years' worth of images gathered from various media. Some are scans of slides, negatives, or prints; others are images straight from a digital camera. We have three people working on this cataloging project. The lead guy has created keywords on his computer that he uses to tag these images. Is there any way to make sure the keywords he's using on his machine sync with and are available to the other users of the image catalog? If not, is there a file that would have to be shared among the three users to make that functionality happen?

Lightroom :: 4.4 - Library Filter By Keyword - Unable To Select Keyword

Jan 2, 2014

Lightroom version: 4.4 [891433]
Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium Edition
Version: 6.1 [7601]
Application architecture: x64
System architecture: x64
Logical processor count: 4
Processor speed: 2.6 GHz
Built-in memory: 6087.8 MB
Real memory available to Lightroom: 6087.8 MB
Real memory used by Lightroom: 523.6 MB (8.6%)
Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 551.5 MB
Memory cache size: 1012.7 MB
Maximum thread count used by Camera Raw: 2
System DPI setting: 106 DPI
Desktop composition enabled: No
Displays: 1) 1600x900
 
If I am in Library module, select filter Metadata, select Keywords from dropdown (no other filter panels selected), and start to scroll down the list of keywords, I can select keywords by mouseclick, and see the matching photos as thumbs in the main window.
 
However as I scroll further down, I can no longer select keywords - the mouseclick no longer highlights or selects. This happens rather incosnsistently - by which I mean, the point in the eyword list where the select stops working is not always the same place in the keyword list.
 
If I click several times on the same non-selecting keyword, LR4.4 jumps to taking 50% (exactly) of processor time (shown in task manager) , and the memory usage climbs steadily until all free RAM is consumed.
 
This is a small (~8000 image) catalogue, with ~2500 keywords, entirely non-hierarchical.
 
The catalogue is set to optimise on backup, weekly.
 
I've tried deleting and recreating the preferences file btw to no avail

Lightroom :: Creates A Keyword Inside Another Keyword?

Mar 12, 2012

#LR4 catalog:createKeyword creates a keyword inside another keyword even though the 4th parameter (parent) in the call is nil. LR3 API doc says .. 'nil to create at the top level' and thats how it worked. Looking forward to LR4 SDK documentation.

Lightroom :: Keyword Tags - Why Can't Add Keyword Tags To Multiple Photos

Sep 2, 2013

I have used multiple versions of Lightroom (2, 3, 4, and now 5).  Why can't I add keyword tags to multiple photos?  I know that it can be done while importing, but I usually import a whole day's worth of pictures at one time and they don't require all the same keyword tags. The ones that are common I do add during import.  I used to be able to highlight the photos I wanted to add tags to, go to the metadata and find find the list of keywords applied to those photos.  Tags that were not common to all photos has an * beside them.  If I wished to have one of these tags for all the selected photos I just removed the *, otherwise I added the new tag to the list.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Create IDW View Of Subassembly By Inserting Parent Assembly

Jan 7, 2014

I create an IDW view of a subassembly by inserting the parent assembly, make it a non-associative view, then turn off visibility of unwanted subassemblies.  When later working in the model and adding a part to one of the non-visable sub-assemblies, that part becomes visable in the IDW views in which the subassembly was non-visable, requiting me to edit all veiws in which the subassembly was non-visible. This can be quite a number of instances.  Is there a way to prevent this?

I may have a more fundamental workflow problem:  I create assemblies composed of subassemblies that need to be detailed sperately.  I have found that in order to correctly create a structured BOM and to have the ballon lables to correspond to the structured BOM, I create the drawing views as described above.  If I would just insert the subassembly to detail it, I don't understand how to get it to relate the balloon labels in the subassembly view to my master BOM.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Projection Grading Create Segments On Parent Feature Line

Dec 12, 2013

When we apply surface projection gradings to feature lines, we get locked vertices on the feature line wherever the grading transitions from cut to fill. In turn these vertices create segments in the feature line which influence any labels applied to the line. I don't want a bazillion segment labels on my FL. I only want segment labels between the physical vertices and elevation points. Is there a workaround or is an enhancement request in order?

Lightroom :: Search All Parent Folders For Image?

Nov 20, 2013

It seems when I do a search query for an image, the search only searches in the folder that I have selected.

BUT...if I have another folder selected that the image is not in, then the search states there is no image that matches. AND...even if I have the parent folder selected, the search query again replies that there is no image.
 
Note: this occurs when I have "Show photos in subfolders" selected AND unselected so I don't think this will fix it.
 
I'd like to be able to truly search my ENTIRE library from just the top parent folder for an image.

Lightroom :: How To Turn Off Parent Keywords When Importing To LR4

Jun 14, 2013

Sometimes I assign keywords for DNG files in Adobe Bridge CS5. Then I import into LR to do some color correction. Then I would export as JPG for the client. In LR2, the keywords would show up fine. For example, if I used "Caucasian" it would just show up in LR2 as "Caucasian". Now, in LR4, when I import (and export), I get Caucasian > Ethnic. The exported JPG would have "Caucasian" and "ethnic". I only want "Caucasian." Not "Ethnic." Is there a way to cut off the "parent" KW in LR4 like was done in LR2?"

Lightroom :: Explanation Of Show / Hide Parent?

Nov 25, 2012

I don't seem to have those options (show/hide Parent) when right clicking on folders in the tree.  The way I have been organizing in LR4 is by creating a new top level folder and dragging the individual folders into that new folder (within LR).
 
I will be moving to a new computer soon and want to make sure the move goes well...

Lightroom :: Importing Parent And Subfolders Into New Catalog?

Feb 4, 2014

I accidentally deleted my LR4 catalog, which I cannot recover. I have been unable to import folders from the source without all the files appearing as a single batch, i.e: no sub-folders in the import window. Must I import the content of each sub-folder into the corresponding destination folders separately: must I uninstall LR4 and reinstall it so that it can create a new default catalog? What is the process I need to follow in order to import the sub-folders?

Lightroom :: View All Photos Tagged Parent But Not Child At Same Time

Sep 1, 2012

Say I have a keyword "parent" and a nested keyword (subtag) "child" under that keyword. Some photos are tagged with "parent", other are (only) tagged with "child".

Is it now possible to view all photos tagged "parent", but not see the "child" photos at the same time? Either using the keyword list or text filter, I always get to see the "child" photos also...

I know I can exclude certain keywords when searching (ie. "parent !child"), but in my case I'm having about 20 child tags, so it's not very practical to write all 20 keywords as exclusions.

Lightroom :: Add Keyword Panel In Develop Tab?

Jun 4, 2012

Can add the "keywording" panel in the Develop tab?
 
In my workflow, I rate or tag a photo only after I've made some PP adjustment. So, my workflow would flow better if the "keywording" tab resided in the Development tab as well. Is this possible? Can you add a panel from another tab?

Lightroom :: 4.1 - Keyword Count Incorrect

Sep 2, 2012

I have Lightroom 4.1; 64 bit; Win7. All of a sudden my keyword list is not showing the correct number of photos to which a particular keyword is attached. It doesn't show any for some when there are a number photos with that particular keyword (although it also does not show "0"). For other keywords, it dispolays a number but it is incorrect (apparently always a lower number than actually applicable. I do not seem to be using a filter that might reduce the number.

Lightroom :: Export Keyword Tag Settings?

May 10, 2013

I've built up an extensive heirarchial keyword list in one of my catalogs.  I want to export that list to use in other catalogs.  I see how you export the keyword list and I get a text file, however, settings applied to each keyword doesn't seem to get exported (i.e. the settings for "Include on Export", "Export Containing Keywords" and "Export Synonyms").  I spent a lot of time building the list such that only the leaf-level keywords get exported to my image.  However, when I export my keyword list from one catalog and import it into a new catalog, those settings are lost.  Is there a way to export those settings as well?  I could create keyword sets, but that would be another time consuming endeavour.
