Two Keyword problems

Comments

    1. I agree. Having just imported from Aperture, I find I have thousands of keywords to change or delete, one by one. The task is frustrating and endless in P1.

    2. I am frustrated by not being able to see easily metadata that is important to me, such as keywords, date and description. The best I can do is to make floating windows. Aperture proved these items as options. It would make using C1 much easier.

    3. Otherwise, I am quite happy with C1.

    Aperture was very good with meta data and it had been "fine tuned" by Apple over several years. Capture One although it has been around about the same amount of time as Aperture if not longer has only recently started to use catalogs (v7) and take on the DAM role.

    I expect we will see more improvements in these areas shortly. 8.2 has had many DAM related features added and improvements since 7.0 was released, most of which were in response to customers coming from Aperture and Lightroom.

    1. I can only add keyword to one picture at the time: When I use the Keyword tool, make a selection of pictures and then add one or several keywords just the fat marked picture of the selection gets keyword the rest, thin marked pictures don't get a keyword.


    There is a toggle at the top of the window that toggles between "edit primary" and "edit selected variants". There was a similar toggle in Aperture. The toggle in Aperture was at the bottom right.

    Anyway, that should solve your problem. Oh yeah, and you have to drag your images on top of the keyword rather than drag the keyword onto the images.

    As for deleting a keyword from multiple images, I think you're out of luck.

    Drag multiple pictures on the keyword thing, "edit primary" and "edit selected variants", that one I have already figured out.
    But I would like to mark multiple pictures and text keyword in the Keyword tool.
    Now if I want a new keyword:
    1. I have to mark one picture
    2. Go to Keyword tool (or open floating), text the new keyword.
    3. Go to Katalog tool, mark all pictures and theb drag them on the new keyword.

    No good work flow.

    Ok, didn't describe it to good!
    The issue is when I create a new empty catalog, it is already filled with a lott a keywords.
    Is it possible to open a clean new Catalog.

    I agree that keywording is poorly implemented. One should be able to highlight all desired images and then type directly into the keyword text area and press Enter. What could be simpler?

    An excellent candidate for the title 'feature request of the week'. 😁

    Do enter a suport request and make it clear that you consider it a feature request.
    I have also entered a request for making metadata visible in a configurable way. This is now a static (foldable) list. In Aperture one could choose which kind of information to display.

    It would also be nice if C1 could inherit MediaPro's Union/Intersect switch. It's faster and more visual than using Advanced Find....
