Keyword_Library: For many applications Keywords are important as well as creating Sub-ones. In my case, illustrated e.g. with Keyword "Blumen/Stauden (Flowers./…). Sub-Keywords can be hundreds. My proposal intends to facilitate adding Sub-Keywords to Keywords.
Actually one opens a new Sub-KW by clicking on Keyword (see attach “Actual_1”), then one has to scroll down the list to the very end of Sub-KWs in order to create a new one (see attach “Actual_2). This is in general very time-consuming. Often, arriving at the end of the list, the field has disappeared: ..brush up the dust, start all over again!!
My proposal: Clicking for a new Sub-KW, the field for entering its name should appear first directly on same level as the Keyword (see attach “Proposal”).
I’m sure, adapting to what is proposed makes life easier for many who work with extended Hierarchies of Key-words as an important part of their photographic objectives (e.g. documentary photography).
Also a guest did an excellent summary of some of the needed keyword fixes
see FR-I-434
Along with these excellent suggestions please fix the adding of child keywords. My nested list is many pages long. To add a child keyword I have to scroll hundreds of words up or down to find the appropriate parent key word and then create the child. Also as suggested then allow a choice to insert the new child keyword for the image(s) selected. You could make this very clean and easy by allowing a child keyword to be created as part of a keyword search. Example - if I want to add a city to to my province - if I search for the province - there is no sublist of cities shown in the search and when I Rt click Create Child Keyword" nothing happens. Nada, nothing. Now delete the search and scroll up or down hundreds of words as above. I then rt click create Child keyword - it then appears at the bottom of the list and then again I have to scroll back up to insert it in the selected images(s).
Horrible waste of time and error prone.
I have been asking for this simple fix since starting back in CO version 7 and there has beenabsolutely no response, no fix, no changes. Keywording is essentially to many photographers - especially for those of us that sell or work.
In Lightroom I'm using Keywords in two languages. Each Keyword in English has sinonim in my native language. After migration to C1 I lost possibility to have keyworks in two languages. and even worse, now I see in C1 compleme mess of keywords local and in English. Using local language sinonim as a keyword significantly improves serch and filtering possibilities
@Thomas Kyhn Rovsing Hjørnet / Thanks for your remarks!
We aim at the same: Capt1 should improve its Management of Keywords and Sub-Keywords as soon as possible - as well as making the best of our two proposals (Sub-KW directly under or besides the Keyword, are almost identical approaches) in order to substitute the actual System, which is highly impractical to handle.
I guess such a change is rather simple to realize - also far less demanding than any other improvement in digital development software.
I wrote about this in the other forum: https://support.captureone.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/19062265566493-When-you-create-a-keyword-it-isn-t-automatically-selected-shown
Right away, I would prefer that when you create a new child keyword, the empty keyword would appear directly under the parent keyword, and that once you've filled in the text and pressed enter, the Keyword Library tool would scroll automatically to the newly created keyword.
One thing that makes it easier to create sub-keywords as it is, is to write the keyword name elsewhere and copy it, and then when you've selected "Create Keyword Child", you can just paste the name and press return, you don't need to scroll down to find the new keyword. After the keyword has been created, you can paste the name in the search field in the Keyword Library tool, and the new keyword will most likely appear somewhere at the top of Keyword Library window where it's easy to select.
