How to search keywords by synonym (Lightroom CC)

Hi
I'm using a hierarchical keywording for animal taxonomy, it is based on the "official" latin names, vernacular names in various languages are included as synonyms.
Is there a way to search for keywords using their synonyms? The search box seems to be limited to only the keyword and does not look for synonyms.
Thanks
Chris

Chris,
Just to clarify what LR does do: When you search by keyword in the Library Filter bar or with a smart collection, LR does search synonyms. However, as you noticed, when you use the Filter Keywords box in the Keyword List panel, synonyms are ignored.  Also, you can't enter a synonym into the Keywording panel (if you try it, LR will silently create a new keyword for you).  It appears that LR 2 had the ability to filter the keyword list by synonyms and use synonyms to apply keywords, but that functionality was removed in LR 3. 
Please add your vote and opinion to this topic in the official Adobe feedback forum: Lightroom: Find keyword by synonym
My Any Tag plugin does handle synonyms the way you want, but it was designed for a particular workflow and may not be to your taste.

  • How can I disable awesomebar search/keyword suggestions on FF 3.6?

    I am on FF 3.6. I'm trying to find a way to disable the AwesomeBar search/keyword suggestions. I have gone through tools -> options -> privacy -> location bar. I have tried setting the location bar set to show only history, bookmarks, or even none, but it still shows keyword search suggestions. How can I disable this?
    I have also tried from about:config, setting maxrichresults to 0. Again, that is not what I'm looking for. I want it to show history and bookmarks, but I do not want keyword search suggestions.

    I'm pretty sure the poster doesn't want to disable the keyword search functionality. What they want is for keyword searches to work, but just not be displayed (or at least not displayed as the automatic first option) on the list of location bar suggestions when typing a new URL.
    In their words, "I want it to show history and bookmarks, but I do not want keyword search suggestions."
    That was how keyword search bookmarks worked in FF3.5, if I recall, and I too would like that behavior back. I haven't found any way to train the awesomebar to not show me keyword search bookmarks.

  • How do I restore my preferred icon for .htm and .html files? search keyword axolotl

    When I made Firefox 3.6.2 my default browser, it changed the icons for my .htm & .html files to the fox&globe symbol - how do I change back to my old red dragon symbol? Folder options doesn't work, the icon for the file type changes in folder options, but has no effect on the icon displayed by Windows XP Explorer. Changing registry entries for DefaultIcon from ...\firefox.exe,1 to ....\mozilla.ico also failed, the WxExplorer icons changed to a generic symbol. Thanks, [email protected]
    search keyword axolotl

    With the help of information from user, ptressel, in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1032154#answer-673322 a post here about the existence of sessionstore.js when version 33 was released], I was able to easily recover my tabs and tab groups as follows:
    # close Firefox and, perhaps, allow a few seconds (30s?) for any final closing of files;
    # check to see if you have a sessionstore.js file in your profile folder, named like the one I documented in my original post above;
    # if it is not timestamped prior to the discovery of your problem, open the sessionstore-backups folder;
    # check if the recovery.js file is suitably timestamped and, if not, the recovery.bak.
    # At this point, you are likely to find that none of them are prior to your problem occuring. If so, open your backups of this folder and go through steps 2-4 to find a file prior to your problem occuring.
    # When you find a file, copy it to the root of your current profile folder and name it, "sessionstore.js"
    # Open Firefox. Mine opened up as desired.
    This is a Windows solution. Sorry I can't comment on other platforms, but I'd bet that as this is just a file copy and renaming, it is likely the same.
    For Windows users, you may find you need to sign out and login as an administrator in order to access the backups. You need not logoff your standard account, but do have Firefox closed as described above.
    Hope that helps.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Is it possible to embed keywords assigned in Lightroom 4 into DNG files?

    Keywords I assign to photos in Lightroom do not show up as "tags" when I view the photo's properties in Windows Live Photo Gallery. Is it possible to embed keywords assigned in Lightroom to the properties of the photo file?

    Thanks very much for your response. Ctrl-S saved the keywords to the DNG file properties. However, my original question was wrong. I should have asked how to save the keywords assigned in Lightroom to the properties of a TIFF file. Ctrl-S in Lightroom does not seem to embed keywords assigned to a TIFF file. When I check the properties of a TIFF file in Windows Live Photo Gallery after I have assigned keywords in Lightroom, the keywords assigned in Lightroom do not appear as "tags." Do you have any additional suggestions?

  • How to find keyword object based on name

    I have a CSV file with file name and keywords.
    XXX_201300511_08765.CR2,Amsterdam
    These keywords already exist in Lightroom.
    Sample: Europe->Netherlands->Amsterdam
    I understand that with photo:addKeyword ( keyword object) I can add keywords to photos.
    How can I find the keyword object in Lightroom.
    For the example, how can I find the keyword object of Amsterdam.

    Thank you John!, I was afraid that that would be the only solution.
    Imho the API of keywords should be extended with a function / method to retrieve all keywords objects based on the name description. I will make the suggestion apart.
    It is possible to find all photo object when supplying the name, like catalog:findPhotos and catalog:findPhotoByPath. Similar functions for keywords would be great.
    Are there code recipes for such a table implementations?

  • Highlight only Searched keywords in a Datagrid

    Hi
    I have a datagird and a searchfunction wich shows only datagridrows containthe searched Keyword.
    Now i would like to highlight the Searched Keyword in the datagird, i can get acces to the row or cell contains the keyword and also highlight them(for example like this: http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/tomershamam/archive/2009/08/27/wpf-datagrid-search-and-highlight.aspx
    But how can i highlight only the keyword like google or opera-browser etc.?
    Thanks very much.

    Hi Negada,
    For that purpose you probably need to use converter where you'll be able to crate "colorized" string.
    To create such text you have to deal with InlineCollection.
    Please take a look here, where you ll be able to become familiar with such functionality:
