Alphabetical Keywords Option

Post by Soeroah »

Hi,

In the latest version there is a line that says "Keywords list in metadata now sorted alphabetically". I've noticed that in my scan today.

I preferred having the keywords show up in the order they appear in the actual file metadata, as I use a sort of tree system to easily identify where important keywords are. Alphabetical throws me off a lot.

Is there an option to revert it to the original state? Failing that, is there a way to restore my previous version of the program?

Thanks

I'll see if I can get this added as a separate metadata flag (e.g. Keywords, Keywords (sorted) )

Hi, I was just wondering if this was still on the cards? Attributes show up in the order they appear in the file's metadata but my Keywords still show up alphabetically, it's a bit of a hassle to compare tags

Soeroah,
I asked the developers to sort and display the Keywords alphabetically because most applications display Keywords alphabetically. While It's fine that you like it the other way, be aware that if you start using a different application, you system may not longer work.
