Operation Manual

4 Drag keywords from the Keywords Library column to the Contents column.
Add Keyword button
If you wish, you can select multiple keywords and drag them to the Contents column at
the same time. Hold down the Shift key while pressing the Up Arrow or Down Arrow key
to select several keywords, Shift-click to select adjacent keywords, or Command-click to
select nonadjacent keywords. If you have a large list of keywords, you can quickly locate
the one you’re looking for by typing the keyword in the search field. You can also add
new keywords to the Keywords Library column by clicking the Add Keyword button. You
can then drag the new keywords into the Contents column.
5 If you want to rearrange the order of the keywords in the Contents column, drag them
into the order you prefer.
The first eight keywords are assigned to the keyboard shortcut key combination of Option
and a number key (1 through 8) on the keyboard. To remove a keyword from the column,
select it and press Delete, or click the Remove (–) button below the column.
6 After arranging the keywords in order, click OK.
The new keyword preset group appears in the Keyword Preset Group pop-up menu.
If the keyword preset group has fewer than eight keywords, the unassigned keys are
inactive.
Applying Keywords Using the Lift & Stamp HUD
If you have images that should share the same keywords, you can use the Lift and Stamp
tools to quickly apply all or some of the keywords from one image to other images. Using
the Lift and Stamp tools is an efficient way to apply keywords and other types of metadata,
such as ratings, to large numbers of images. The Lift and Stamp tools can also apply
adjustments made to images, such as cropping, straightening, exposure changes, and
other adjustments. For more information about using the Lift and Stamp tools to apply
adjustments, see Applying Adjustments to a Group of Images.
