- To conduct a search using keywords, use the NOTES
- criterion, which is accessed through the pop-up
- menu in the SEARCH dialog box.
-
- Keywords (with the exception of content categories
- and proper nouns) are singular rather than plural,
- regardless of how many of something appear in an
- image.
-
- Keywords are noun forms (rather than verbs)
- whenever possible: i.e., "driving," rather than
- "drive" or "drives."
-
- Keywords are lowercase except for proper nouns.
- The Kudo browser disregards capitalization in its
- searches.
-
- Artist's names and the titles of Artville CDs are
- included as keywords.
-
- The Kudo browser will find partial words. For
- example, searching on "man" will find images with
- "man," "woman," and "manatee" as keywords.
-
- After images are found using a keyword search, you
- can redisplay all of the disc's images by selecting
- FIND ALL from the IMAGE.
