Re: Keyword Search

This is a bit of a gotcha as keywords are not searchable in the same way text is. As Tom pointed out keywords are only searchable via the tick boxes in the advance filter window which will become a very inefficient way of quickly looking for shots when you start having 20 or 50 or 100 different keyword.

I think keywords are great for loose grouping of shots (Interview, B-roll, Scene, 'Rooms' etc - similar to the coloured labels in FCP7) but nothing beats adding a little text in the note field. Then you can properly use the filter in dialogue box. Smart collects are also a very powerfully tool to organise footage,
