new member: some general questions about forums

[philburton]

Hello all,

I am a long-time Lightroom Classic user.  I have just learned how iMatch can improve my overall workflow in several areas, as much as I know about iMatch right now.  I am new to this forum community. 

What is the best forum for posting qauestions about:

• Lightroom and iMatch overall workflow?
• keywords and thesaurus?
• Lightroom collections and smart collections?
• Renaming files and folders in iMatch.
• Reverse geocoding?
• People identification?
• Special considerations, if any, for scanned slides (diapositives) and negatives.

If it matters, I consider myself and intermediate user for Lightroom but an advanced PC user overall.

General discussions.

From your list of areas, I would say all are covered in the IMatch help very well.
Did you start there?

For example: The Universal Thesaurus for controlled keywords and taxonomies.
Lr collections and smart collections are a Lr-only concept stored in the catalog. Not accessible for IMatch.
IMatch uses Categories and the very powerful Data-driven Categories which can to much, much more than Lr's collections.
And there are of course IMatch's Collections
For renaming files and folders, read File Management in IMatch
For reverse geocoding, read Reverse Geocoding
For all things related to face recognition and persons, start with people People

Feel free to post questions in general discussion if you run into an issue not covered by the usually very detailed help system.
