Filters > Keywords behaviour

If you have a keyword containing one word and another keyword containing the same word and one or more other words – such as this:

When you select the first keyword in the Filters tool, images containing the second keyword will also be included in the results.

Is this intentional behaviour?

  It's annoying, isn't it? It's actually not only in the kind of instance you cite, but it can also happen with partial matches such as red kite and redshank. If I type red [space] in the filter search I get images of both red kites and redshanks despite there being no space in redshank. But I remember asking about it a while ago, and a suggestion was made that works. If I type "red[space] (with no need for a closing ") then I only get the red kites and not the redshanks. I don't think it should happen, but this may be a workaround that will help.

  Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give that a try!

  Yes, I agree that's annoying, and I was not very happy to see that my flickr account, too, couldn't register a double keyword such as "Word X" but rather registered two keywords instead. It obeys to some logics a keyword is a keyword, not a composite.

  You have the possibility to refine your keyword search in Capture One, but it needs to open the "search" window, which is not as simple as typing the keyword in the filter.
