Bridge keyword works in 2023 not in 2024

Some of my Bridge keywords were inadvertently moved to be sub keywords. Directions say to pull the keyword down to the bottom of the list of keywords and it will change from a subkeyword to a keyword. This works in Bridge 2023 does not work in 2024. My 2024 version is 14.0.1. Mac OS Ventura 13.6.1.  Please fix this bug !!

      A work-around method would be to use the menu in the keywords panel to export the keywords to text file.

       

      Then dupe and work in a copy of this file.

       

      Remove the tab character indent in front of the keywords which are now sub-keywords.

       

      Reimport the keywords.

       

      You might need to first clear/delete all keywords beforehand if you get dupes. Before clearing or editing any keywords, I would also suggest that you backup the XML file first, in addition to saving out the plain TXT keyword file.

      I'm going to wait a bit to see if Bridge fixes this bug before i go through the hassle of the work around. But thanks for the instructions for the work around if Bridge doesn't update.
