multiple keyword presets on one image?

John Wildgoose
Unless I am missing something, it doesn't appear to be possible to apply two or more keyword presets to a single or range of images.

Example.
I have a car image in a big forest location. I have two keyword presets. One called Car with all the motoring related keywords and another called nature, with all my natural space keywords. I want to copy BOTH presets to the one image.

Can't seem to find a way to do this.

I know you can copy across, but you cannot 'add' a preset of keywords, it will always 'replace'. I am hoping to hear that if you press CMD, SHIFT, APPLY you can do it but no such thing seems to be in the knowledge base.

    This is a current limitation of the preset design as it was primarily invented for adjustments where you only have one setting, not a concurrent list. We have it on the to do list to improve.

    Hi James
    I saw the email from the 'professor' about preset stacking, but my initial glee was extinguished when I realised (it appears) you cannot stack multiple keyword presets ☹️

    or did I miss something?

    Keywords is currently the exception to the rule of preset stacking.

    Paul: Is this still a limitation in v 8.3.2? In the on-line manual, it now seems to indicate that keywords can be stacked. There is a menu item that can selected/deselected. With this item selected, if I click on the "Manage and apply Keyword presets" item in the Keywords tool, it shows that I have applied two set of presets. However, the keyword list for that selected photo only shows the keywords from one of the two applied lists.
