Hi, I’m a new user here and just installed Aspect a few days ago. I have not done anything other than import my photos and I’m working purely from the library at present while I try to figure out how Aspect works.

I am struggling to understand how keywords work, I have been trying to add keywords to my photos, and in the end it’s not behaving as expected.

1. Adding a keyword to an individual photo works as expected.
2. Selecting multiple photos and attempting to add keywords ONLY adds them to one photo in the group.
3. I can see existing keywords in the pane, but cannot figure out how to apply them to new photos. Instead I have to retype them manually for every photo.

Is there something I’m missing?

Hi, it seems like there is possibly a bug involved here. I’ve tested it and for me it correctly applied new keywords to all selected photos at once. With such a set of selected photos, where a new keyword is only applied to one of them, are you still able to apply the keyword to all of them one-by-one, or does this maybe fail for some of the photos in general?

There are currently two main ways to apply existing keywords. One is by using the regular `+ New` button and starting to type, but then choosing an entry from the auto-complete popup that appears instead of fully typing it out. The second way works by dragging a selected set of photos onto the keyword tree in the collection pane.

Finally, there is also the possibility to assign a metadata template to regular collection, which can be used, among other things, to define a set of multiple keywords and have them applied automatically to every photo added to that collection. This one is reserved for the “pro” version.
