Question

Keyword 'categories', all, people, other

I have been trying to organize my photo's with keywords (of course I have), but there is one thing I don't seem to be able to solve. In category 'other' I find 'not people' keywords AND 'people' keywords, and they shouldn't be there, I presume. These are in 'people' too, but slightly different. It is about approximately 650 photos in both sections.

The question is how to remove the person photos from 'other' without removing them from 'people'. Some time ago I tried to remove them in that way, from 'other', and I had to load an earlier catalogue to get the keywords back.

I hope that someone here knows how to solve this, thanks, Hans van den Berg, The Netherlands

If you edit a keyword that shows under the "other" search you may find that the [Person] box is not selected.

It is possible to have similar keywords- one marked as [Person], the other not so.

(My example:  {SMITH_JILL} is a 'Person',  {JILL SMITH} is not a 'person'.

Be specific, what keywords do you see? Show us a screen capture. Use the "Insert Photos" icon, do not attach files.

I thought about this before placing this question here, but I thought it didn't add any information. I will have a look at what Rog_Cullen writes, and then come back - or, hopefully, not. Thanks anyway, for now
