Keyword list format (LR6.n)
« on: February 28, 2016, 12:55:37 pm »

I'm looking to edit my keyword list in LR to improve it's hierarchy structure, then copy it to my laptop installation to ensure continuity.
It seems to be easier to do this outside of Lightroom to start with by adding some external keyword structures via cut and paste.

Looking at my exiting list when exported, I'm puzzled that some keywords have straight brackets around them for no obvious reason.
Does anyone know why LR puts theses brackets around some words or why ? are they important ?

Using L6.4

eg;
[Architecture]
   alleyway
   [angel]
   Aquadrome
   arbor
   [arch]
   Architect
      [Gaudi]
      Hawksmoor
      materials
      Palladio
   archway
   balustrade

It signifies "do not export".
