Keywords in hierarchical form

I have my keywords arranged in categories (ex: People), then subcategories (Ex: Family), then subjects, (Ex: AJ).
When keywording an image, I would like to click the subject (AJ) and have LR tag the two upper level subcategory & parent category (Family & People) automatically.
I can't seem to accomplish this. I must manually check each keyword, even though they are nested. I tried creating a keyword path (AJ>Family>People), but rather than do what I want it to, it appears as a new keyword with the name "AJ>Family>People".
What am I doing wrong?

To build on Rob's reply: Note that Adobe quietly reversed the meaning of "<" between versions 4 and 5.  In version 4, you'd write AJ > Family > People, and in version 5, AJ < Family < People (or People > Family > AJ).  Beware of that as you read blog posts, other forum posts, and books that might be referring to an earlier version.
Also, as Rob noted, simply entering AJ is sufficient to implicitly tag the photo with Family and People.  Even though a check mark won't appear next to Family or People in the Keyword List pane, if you search for either of those keywords (using smart collections, the Library Filter bar, or the arrow to the right of the keyword in the Keyword List), the search results will automatically include images tagged with AJ.

  • How to search xml file data based on the given keyword from html form

    hi,
    i'm new to XML. I have this problem regarding searching within a XML file.
    the
    idea is that my search will be based on the keyword entered
    in
    by the user from a HTML form. the keyword is then used to search all
    the
    question nodes and the choice nodes within a XML file. once the match
    is
    found, i will have to display the results.
    But i don't know how to do so - especially the part of searching xml file.
    Can
    anyone help me in this? Your help is much appreciated.

    yeah.. what i was trying to do is
    i have one xml fine. then i have to read all the tag values say
    <book>
    <title>Java</title>
    <author>agarwal</author>
    <price>200</price>
    </book>
    <book>
    <title>Xml</title>
    <author>saxmann</author>
    <price>300</price>
    </book>
    i can read the tag values like this
    File file = new File("dom.xml");
    try {
    DocumentBuilder builder = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder();
    Document doc = builder.parse(file);
    NodeList nodes = doc.getElementsByTagName"book");
    for (int i = 0; i < nodes.getLength(); i++) {
    Element element = (Element) nodes.item(i);
    NodeList title = element.getElementsByTagName("title");
    Element line = (Element) title.item(0);
    what i want is i may give any xml file
    like File file = new File("xxx.xml");
    (it may be one level/two level/3level tagged one)
    then the i should read all the tag values and store them in some array. Then when i enter some character from keyboard (say "a") then it has to show all the tag values starts with "a" and display them.
    i guess u understand my problem.

  • Filtering keywords in hierarchies ..

    Good day!
    There is an interesting question ..
    A simplified formulation of the problem:
    The keyword top-level "Country", there are two offspring "England", "Korea".
    "Country"
    *** "England"
    *** "Korea"
    There are 10 photos marked key word "England", 20 labeled "Korea. " A further 16marked the keyword top of the word "Country. "
    Attention to the question:
    How not to take this smart collection or search for words (country! England! Korea)receive 16 photos Tagged country? The function is similar to configuring the directorydisplay nested folders on the disc ...
    The fact that the sublevels can be many and to list all of them through "!Name of the country" - not very convenient ...

    Thank you!
    pity that there is a beautiful simple solution. Of the proposed liked -
    You can speed this up a little:
    - Create a keyword BirdsOnly.
    - Select all Birds photos and assign them the BirdsOnly keyword.
    - In the Library Filter Bar, add a Keyword column and select all of the subkeywords of Bird. This will show the photos that have a subkeyword of Birds.
    - Select all the photos and remove the Birds and BirdsOnly keywords.

  • Are Keywords Hierarchical or not?

    I was sure I read that the keywords were hierarchical. In practice I can't get them to work that way.
    In the Keyword HUD I set up the keywords and they appropriatly indent subordinate keywords nicely. For example I use State with City as the subordinate keyword. The problem is if I assign a keyword to an image of a City Name a setting a filter by State won't work unless I also assign a State keyword too. If this were truly heiarchical an assignment to city would allow you to filter by state and select all the subordinate images assigned to cities within that state. Am I doing something wrong? Help would be appreciated

    One of the problems with the way hierarchical keywords are organisd is that when you export them to say Photoshop, only the chosen keyword is exported and it does not inherit the keywords from the higher levels. So at a wedding I get Cutting cake exported rather than Cutting Cake, Reception and Wedding which would be much more useful. Perhaps this will be an amendment for a later version of Aperture.

  • Hierarchical tree in forms 10g

    dear member.

    i am using developer suit 10g.

    Mustafa,
    the way u have marked the node_id and parent_node_id in the two tables, it is done at form level. or what... this is a little confusing to me, i have to apply that ht form at other schema.Yes, I create Record Group that populates the HT in the When-New-Form-Instance (WNFI) trigger. You can populate an HT from just about anywhere, but I use the WNFI to ensure the tree is populated when the form loads.
    To add a "Grandchild" node to your tree, you simply need to modify the WNFI trigger and add a Loop for these nodes. Using your data as an example, the code in the WNFI would look something like this (not tested):
    DECLARE
       CURSOR c_comp IS
          SELEC T compcode, name
            FRO M company;
       CURSOR c_div (p_comp NUMBER) IS

            FRO M s_div
          WHER E compcode = p_comp;
       CURSOR c_dept (IS
          SELEC T dept_id, dept_name
           FRO M s_dept
         WHER E dept_id = p_dept;
       n_level NUMBER := 1;
       n_row NUMBER := 1;
       rg_id  RECORDGROUP;
       node Ftree.Node;
    BEGIN
       Tree_Control.v_item_name := 'MY_TREE_DATA.MY_TREE';
       rg_id := Tree_Control.Create_RG;
       <<parent>>
       FOR r_comp IN c_comp LOOP
          -- Add Parent Company
          Tree_Control.ADD_RG_ROW(rg_id, ftree.collapsed_node, n_row,
                  n_level, r_comp.name, null, r_comp.compcode);
          n_row := n_row + 1;
          n_level := n_level + 1;
          -- Add any child Department records
          <<child>>
          FOR r_div IN c_div(r_comp.compcode) LOOP
             Tree_Control.ADD_RG_ROW(rg_id, ftree.collapsed_node, n_row,
                  n_level, r_div.div_name, null, r_div.div_id);
             n_row := n_row+1;
             -- Now, add any Grandchildren
            <<grandchild>>
            FOR r_dept IN c_dept(r_div.dept_id) LOOP
               Tree_Control.ADD_RG_ROW(rg_id, ftree.collapsed_node, n_row,

  • Hierarchical keywords in iPhoto

    I really appreciate the ability to open my Aperture library in iPhoto. I moved from iPhoto to Aperture a couple of years ago and upgraded all my keywords to hierarchical ones. Now when I open my library in iPhoto though, none of my keywords are visible other than top level ones. Is this a known restriction? If so, is there a plan to add the feature to iPhoto.
    Cheers
    Dave

    iPhoto doesn't support hierardhical keywords.  Only Aperture does. We don't know what Apple's plans are for updates to iPhoto as we're just users like yourself but you can put in a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • What is up with my "Keywords & Containing Keywords" box?

    I have the Time Warner Center location in New York City nested this way:  WORLD REGIONS & COUNTRIES>North America>United States of America>New York>NYC>New York City>Manhattan>Time Warner Center.
    After uploading images to LR2 I began keywording by typing "Time Warner ..." and then it autofilled the rest. I entered the keyword.  After I did so, I switched to the "Keywords & Containing Keywords" box and this is what I saw.  Is this what is going to appear when I export the file to my PhotoShelter archive?  I've not seen this before and don't understand what has caused it.  It is crazy. 

    It looks like this because you have duplicate keywords in your Lightroom catalog — one in an hierarchy and one stand-alone. For example, if the keyword panel shows you a keyword in a form of "Manhattan > New York", that mean that you have applied the hierarchical Manhattan keyword, but the catalog also has a stand-alone Manhattan. Check you keyword list to see.
    When you export, the keywords will be exported as a flat list, not as a hierarchy and they will not contain the ">" symbols. All keywords in an hierarchy tree will be exported (as stand-alone flat keywords), except those that have "Include on Export" deselected in their properies (right-click a keyword in the keyword list to check this).

  • If I make minor keyword updates in Bridge, how do I update an existing catalog to catch the changes?

    Is there a way to update the LR3 keyword hierarchies in existing LR catalogs for minor changes done in Bridge?
    I have started to use LR for the first time.  I have about 50K photos that are key worded from within Bridge in maybe a hundred sub dirs.  The hierarchies seem to work somewhat differently in Bridge than in Lightroom catalogs & don't seem to handshake with each other. Apparently I should have originally turned on the keyword hierarchies in preferences in the Bridge when I originally set the keywords. I have hundreds of keywords without hierarchies. Now I want to correct the (missing delimiters) hierarchies in LR3 (using the most efficient method).
    (The hierarchies do not show up on Bridge filters, so I saw no reason to use them originally, when I had fewer keywords).  Correcting the hierarchy in LR seems to not go back and correct the Bridge hierarchies.  So if there is a way to get the keyword hierarchy to update back from LR to Bridge, that would be the easiest way to fix the hierarchies, but I don't see how to do it.  Any suggestions?
    thanks,
    ron...

    It will depend on if you saved the metadata from LR to the file or not. If not and you update the keywords in bridge, you will loose one or the other your choice.
    If you saved the metadata, then its a simple matter of just reading the metadata into LR or syncing that file.
    If you plan on editing metadata in bridge from time to time, then you need to get in the habit of saving the metadata (ctrl-s in windows) from LR or turn on autosave.

  • Adding Metadata to PDF Form

    Hi, I'm trying to add some metadata to a pdf. I have the follow script in the form initialize event:
    if (form1.desc.nodes.namedItem("metadata") == null) then
    var oNode=xfa.form.createNode("text", "metadata")
    form1.desc.nodes.append(oNode)
    endif
    I receive the error message:
    Argument mismatch in property or function argument
    I also tried this code:
    if (form1.desc.nodes.namedItem("metadata") == null) then
    var oNode=xfa.form.createNode("text", "metadata")
    oNode.value = "Test Data"
    form1.desc.nodes.append(oNode)
    endif
    Which gave me this error:
    accessor "oNode.value" is unknown
    It appears that the oNode object is not being created.
    Any suggesting how I can add Metadata to the PDF?

    Hi,
    This is the code I use to place metadata into the pdf file. If you open
    the resulting pdf file using Notepad, the metadata is visible as readable
    text in the file. I'm not sure the same approach can be used to add
    metadata as viewed under Document Properties. We are not using it that
    way. Maybe by changing the node name?
    if ((EMAIL_SUBJECT1.rawValue != "")&&(EMAIL_SUBJECT1.rawValue != null))
            var vDesc=xfa.template.data.desc;
            var oNode1=xfa.template.createNode("text", "EMAIL_SUBJECT1");
            vDesc.nodes.append(oNode1);
    vDesc.nodes.namedItem("EMAIL_SUBJECT1").value=EMAIL_SUBJECT1.rawValue;

  • Using xmltable in forms 10g

    I am getting the error *'Error 103 at line 15, column 30 Encountered the symbol "(" when expecting one of the following: ... '*.
    My query that is causing this error is :
    SELECT *
    from XMLTable('for $e in /Applicants/Applicant return $e' PASSING v_result COLUMNS Cnum number PATH 'Cnum')
    ,firstname varchar2(200) PATH 'FirstName'
    ,surname varchar2(200) PATH 'Surname')
    It is complaining about the bracket '(' just after the XMLTable keyword.
    Does forms maybe not understand the XMLTable keyword?? as the exact same code works fine when run directly on the db.
    Please can someone help me identify the problem or an alternate solution.

    user2691144 wrote:
    as the exact same code works fine when run directly on the db.You mean using SQL*Plus? Anyway; forms has it's own PL/SQL engine and as XMLDB is probably not a part of it this could be the cause of your problem. As a workaround you could write your xquery in a database procedure und call this procedure from forms.

  • In Keyword List panel, need to support quotes for AND'ing multi-word keyword searches

    As far as I know (and read around), there's no way to search multi-word keywords in the keywords list panel using the "Filter Keywords" box. i.e. If I want to search for the "Great Blue Heron" keyword in a large animal keywords list I have, Lightroom will OR the three words instead of AND'ing them like Aperture does more intuitively. Adding quotes like "Great Blue Heron" doesn't work either. Again this is to filter a large keyword lists through the "Filter Keywords" box in the Keywords List panel.
    Am I missing something? Is it possible to AND multi-word keywords?
    Thanks.

    Rob,
    as far as I know spaces are also contained and allowed in controlled vocabularies (e.g. for the "official" names of animals 'little panda' for example and plants). I'm using spaces for names very often. As a prof. photographer I need to write captions for all of my images before sending them to my agency with WHEN/WHAT/WHERE/WHO etc. So when shooting persons very often or regular (e.g. politicians or athletes) I started years ago to create keywords and hierarchies for them. So it is much easier and more comfortable to assign them later.
    Please check out PhotoMechanic or IMatch. These progs doesn't have any problems with spaces in keywords and keyword searches...
    BTW: when using a space in a search I expect that the default behaviour of such a space is a locical AND.

  • Hierarchical Tree Data Query/Record Group Question

    I need help with Hierarchical Forms right now. I'm currently trying to implement a hierarchical tree to display the different items in different categories. I have been reading up on it for the past few days, and i do not understand a few things.
    What is the difference between a data query and record group? they seem the same to me.
    How does the XX = prior XXX work? i understand that this is what connects the parent to the child.
    How do you determine what depth the node is? its done in the record group/data query, but how do i decide what level it is dynamically?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Thanks! I am unable to create a table specifically for the tree because i am using tables that have been ported live and are in use. My question about levels is how do I know which depth the node is. For example, i have a category called Information Technology and a category item called Business Informatics. I want to know how to decide that the Category(information technology) is on level 1 and the Item(business informatics) is on level 2.
    Information Technology
    |_
    Business Informatics
    And i do know how the Connect By XX = prior XXX works in the data query/record group.
