Keywords Panel

[george_51]

I have set up PM6+ for my main library of images and it works really well - I have made extensive use of Keywords, about 40 of them, to allow me to locate images of particular people, scenes or events.

I also have a library of aircraft images, many taken off the web, which I have now prepared in folders, by aircraft manufacturer, and to which I now wish to allocate Keywords so I can search on say Flying Boats, or USAAF.

When I set up a new Catalog for the aircraft images the Keywords Panel that drops down contains the Keywords I set up for my main image library.

So, is it possible to have a separate Keywords Panel for each Catalog?

No, there is no provision for having different sets of keywords for each Catalog.  However, you can have sets of keywords that you load from snapshot files.  Have one for your main image library, and one for your aircraft and use the snapshot button (has a lighting bolt on it) to switch between them.

Thanks Kirk - I’ll try that.
