Keyword Count

[mklass]

Is there a way in PM+ version 2026.6, build 9175 to get a count of the number of keywords assigned to an image?

The stock photo site that I use likes a minimum number to improve discoverability, but also discourages too many keywords. It would be helpful to know the number of keywords before uploading, rather than trying to modify the files after uploading.

There is currently no way to do this within Photo Mechanic. The best suggestion I have at the moment is to export the keywords to a TSV file using the Text Exporter, then use a formula in your spreadsheet software to calculate the number of keywords in the column where you put the keywords.

The following formula works to do that in MacOS Numbers (and likely Excel too)

=IF(A1="","",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,",",""))+1)

Replace A1 with the column where the keywords are

Better than nothing, but a bit clumsy.

Perhaps this could be a future enhancement?
