dddadddy Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Hi Still trying to get my head around the new captioning After I have captioned an image I go to the next one but the keywords seem to remain How do I get rid of them so I can start afresh? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Crellin Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 It's the thing we are many of us beefing about - the last images stays selected until you click it again. This could be useful if you want to reuse keywords for the next one - they should be greyed. Any you click on will go to both images. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Quist Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 - or make a habit of clicking the "Clear Selection" in the upper right corner after editing. Especially faster if you have more images open to copy keywords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 As others say, you need to deselect the image you're working on (after saving). It can be useful for tagging similar images though, as when you have more than one selected, the tags that are not similar to all of them show in grey. Clicking that grey tag turns it black, which is then applied to all selected images (as long as you remember to hit save). It's one of a few advantages that speeds things up that I like in the new IM (I've realised that I kept writing "MI" before! Not sure why!). Geoff. You must go back and correct all those errors before your next batch will pass QC. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just say something controversial. Alamy will edit it right down to nothing for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I still say IM. I think virtually everyone has the new system now and know what I mean when I say IM. Call me bullheaded, like Ed. Who said...KEYWORDS, KEYWORDS, KEYWORDS! And I'm with Ed. Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
