Hi there,
Recently I asked my friend(software developer) to create simple application for sorting keywords order. I use Adobe Lightroom to keyword my images, but it�s automatically sorting keywords in Alphabetical order.
As you know some agencies want to classify keywords in order of importance. Or you might want to change your strategy and re-sort your keywords for specific images/videos.

Anyway if anybody finds this application useful � feel free to use it.
Paste your keywords into textbox, then drag and drop objects(frames), final text appears below.

I agree; thank you!

I do wish you could have it save a cookie with preferences, so I don't have to set the delimiter fields every time. But otherwise it's perfect.

Good point. I will ask my friend about this.

However when you paste keywords ending �,� or �;� you don�t have to select any delimiter, just leave it empty.

Only when you have combination of keywords like �woman, New York, man, United Kingdom� when you select Delimiters �,� then you get words like �woman� in one frame and both words �New York� in other frame.

My keyword terms almost always have a few with multiple words in them. But it isn't that big a deal to have to select the delimiters. 

Even better -- no cookie needed, only need set it once per session. Thank you (and your friend). If I find myself using this often, I will donate a bit to help.

Done now you don't have to set the delimiter fields every time

I never realized keyword order mattered. Is this true for all agencies? I amy have to go back and do a lot of reordering

Don't bother with iStock - it won't 'stick'.

Order doesn't matter for DT, all keywords are reordered alphabetically and phrases are split up.
