-
remove tags from images, first select them in the browser and open the tag list.
-
Tagging
-
Ctrl + T while viewing the image or having some images selected in the browser view.
-
If you open the tag list while the add tag box is open, you can add tags from the list by left clicking on them.
-
Separate multiple tags with commas
-
Add tags from the list to images by dragging them on images: left drag adds tags to one image, right drag will apply them to a group of images
-
Or, select a few tags and double click on one of them. This will view all images with all the selected tags.
-
Double click on a tag to view all images with the tag
-
added:
-
Deselect (Ctrl + Left click) the tags you want to leave to the images and press delete.
-
You can make aliases to tags by adding both tags and dragging the tags on each other in the list. The draggee will become the alias for the tag you drag the tag on. Every time you add the alias, it will actually add the original tag.
-
I don't quite get what it means, will have to test out. I suppose it means you can create fake tags, where they are simply placeholders for actual tags. I'm assuming you can do it with multiple tags as well?

Let’s imagine you have a screenful of untagged and tagged images. First, press Alt + T to sort images by tags. With the mouse, click on the left edge of the screen to open the file list. You should see a group of files in the beginning of the list marked as having no tags. Right click on the list to select a whole group of images, and press Ctrl + C to copy the files on the clipboard. Press Ctrl + N to open a new view and paste the images with Ctrl + V. Now you have a nice, clean workspace with no unwanted files.
-
-
press Ctrl + Shift + O to automatically sort all files into smaller subgroups
-
Adding complete directories
-
Use the included program dbtool to add directories recursively with any tags you like.
-
"c:\Program Files\Viewer2\dbtool" add "c:\my photos\kittens" cats cute. This will add everything in the specified directory and add the tags cats and cute to each image.

-
Automated tagging
-
-
Ctrl + D: Select none
-
-
eature is experimental.
-
Synchronizing IPTC keywords and Viewer2 tags is disabled by default, because it physically modifies image files
-
enable it in the configuration by ensuring the option “Synchronize tags and IPTC keywords” is checked. Viewer2 will then tag every new image with IPTC keywords and set the IPTC keywords to the tags the image has in Viewer2
-
Ctrl + Shift + left drag: Add lasso selection to the selected images
-
Right click on filelist: Select group
-
Alt + C: Sort by color (press Alt + C multiple times to adjust fuzziness) Alt + D: Sort by date (press Alt + D multiple times to adjust fuzziness) Alt + G: Sort by group Alt + L: Sort by forced links Alt + N: Sort by name (press Alt + N multiple times to adjust fuzziness) Alt + O: Sort by original order (e.g. the order of images returned from a query, useful with top:views query) Alt + P: Sort by path Alt + R: Sort by resolution
-
Syncing tags and IPTC keywords
-
Ctrl + Shift + F: Find files with matching tags
-
Ctrl + I: Invert selection
-
Ctrl + O: Order selected images in one group Ctrl + Shift + O: Order images in groups
-
Ctrl + S: Zoom into all files (fit files on screen) Ctrl + Shift + S: Zoom into selected files
-
Delete: If tag list is not open delete selected files from the view, if the list is open the selected tags will be removed from the selected images
-
Ctrl + Delete: Physically delete selected files
-
Home: Zoom image to fit to screen End: Zoom image to original size
-
Inertia The inertia of everything, less means everything will be smoother but slower.
-
ShowDirectories Show subdirectories in the browser.
-
UseSpiral If set to 0, order images in a square, otherwise order images in a spiral.
-
IPTC into the files but they don’t show up in Picasa. Other tools, such as Exifer or IrfanView can display them
-
IPTC export works at least on some programs
-
doesn’t write IPTC back to the images when we set tags – is that by design?
-
(“Synchronize IPTC tags” needs to be checked on the “Database” page). That feature definitely exists but it’s not enabled by default.
-
not entirely sure if enabling the syncing will automatically write the tags that you have added earlier but either adding (or removing) any tag will trigger the IPTC update for the file. Or, you can use dbtool to sync manually (something like “dbtool exportiptc c:\Photos”).
-
a small tool that recursively parse the whole image repository to automatically assign tags would be nice.
-
The new dbtool does this automatically. You can simply add a file in a directory and the tags in the file are applied to all the subdirectories. It can also tag files based on the tags it sees in the directory names, so if you have the tags “2009″ and “holiday” in the system and a directory named “holiday 2009″, dbtool will apply both tags to the images in the directory.
-
Would it be possible integrate this new dbtool inside the “MSWindows explorer”?
-
It is possible to add any program in the menu, as long as the program takes command line arguments.

The command line would be something like “c:\viewer2 directory\dbtool.exe” iptcadd “%1″.

Really long but sounds like it has tonnes of functions. As reviewed in freewaregenius, I think shortcuts will come in handy though you would really have to get used to it.
