Title: Assigning categories
Post by: frlindla on March 21, 2021, 12:12:01 AM
When I assign photos to a category, is it possible to also set Imatch to automatically set this category as a keyword?

Please see The @Keywords Category (https://www.photools.com/help/imatch/#cat_keywords.htm)

I have read that assigning photos to a category shall also give the photos the corresponding hierarchical keyword. But that doesn`t happen for me. Any suggestions why?

The @Keywords category mirrors the keywords in your files, and it has special features related to keywords.
When you assign a file to a @Keywords category (categories under the @Keywords root category), the corresponding keyword is added to the file. This only works in the @Keywords branch, not elsewhere!

The main feature to add and edit Keywords in IMatch is the Keywords Panel (https://www.photools.com/help/imatch/#md_keywords_panel.htm). It offers a many features to make adding and editing keywords simple, fast, consistent and safe.
