Lightroom Tip - Visual Keyword Usage Indicator

Lightroom allows you to assign keywords which is great for quickly finding images by simply clicking on the keyword in the "Keyword Tags" section of the left hand Library module.

What you may not be aware of are the "check marks" which appear next to other keyword groups when you select a specific image. In the case below I have selected the single boat image.

Lightroom shows check marks against all the other keyword groups that contain the same boat image.

Keyword Groups containing the same image

Now if you click on any one of the "check marked" keyword groups Lightroom will display the group and also highlight the selected image. See the example below.

Boat image highlighted in checked group

This can be very helpful to check your keyword usage and relevance.

Hope you find this useful.
