Re: MP 0.98.3 - Tagging a image via Spacebar does nothing.

You are right it is working... I must have missed it.

But in viewer mode, can toggle tag off (Space) but cannot toggle tag on! Wonder why?

Re: MP 0.98.3 - Tagging a image via Spacebar does nothing.

Ah, is it because the Interface > keyboard > SPACE setting has three available actions, and no other action is possible and any shortcut will be ignored/overridden? "No action" actually inhibits Space from other actions? So how about just add a 4th option for SPACE, Toggle tag on file? There are at ...

Re: MP 0.98.3 - Tagging a image via Spacebar does nothing.

Ah, time flies when you're busy... I just downloaded MP 1.4.3, for both Win 64bit and Linux 64bit, and I'm running Linux with wine to run the win version. So, in Linux, Space toggles tag in Browser and Viewer, both OK. (Having set space in shortcuts a long time ago). But in Fullscreen Space has no e...

Re: MP 0.98.3 - Tagging a image via Spacebar does nothing.

Is this bug fixed? I still can't tag with Space bar in fullscreen view (MP version 1.0.0 Linux)
I checked shortcuts, Space is assigned cmd_tag

Category sets manager

I lost all my category sets a while ago and just rebuilt them, which took me quite a long time. Because of the UI limitations (of the category set manger), I added the few hundred I needed to one mega set, going through alphabetically in the drop down until I added them all. Then I selected multiple...

Re: 0.51: Categories filter shows duplicate entries

Pierre, what is 'base folder' for?? Do you suggest I use it or not? When I removed 'base folder' it actually damaged my categories, like they all disappeared. So I cleared catalog and added folders back. But now files with keywords are funny, they show up with category filter, but there is no catego...

Re: Suggest: sticky notes in any folder!

Further thoughts.. the note can be saved to a regular file with special extension, like .xnote On mouse hover on note icon the note pops up larger to read its content. Somehow need to open it for edit - with background color, text font/color settings. -------- I actually made a rough hack, creating ...

Save as dialogue enhancements

I need these in the Save as dialogue:

1. the option for saving to originating folder, so no need to hunt for it.
2. allow Write compression quality setting, so that it can be adjusted for the work at hand.

(currently compression quality is only found at Viewer mode > File > Format > Write tab)

Batch convert: IPTC: can't write comment field?

With the Batch convert tool, I can't manage to write to the XMP comment field of files.

What I can do:
write IPTC caption and XMP description

Which gives a problem with thumbnails tool-tips, as I want to see comments.
Tooltips can show:
IPTC caption and XMP comment

can't show{
XMP description

Currently, with Similar files search, the option "same file data" seems to search for exact copies in different locations. I need to find the originals of files that have been resized and renamed.

Sticky notes in any folder

I sometimes get tangled up in so much work that I/m afraid sometimes I will leave something unfinished. That means I need to write notes to remind me of jobs to do, such as searching different categories to build a collection for a book, and I either just make a new Libre Writer documeent, which is ...

Re: MP 0.98.3 - Tagging a image via Spacebar does nothing.

Same problem for me here, 0.98.4.. Space no longer works to tag files, in Browser or Fullscreen.

In 0.97 it works in Browser mode OK, but will not tag/untag in Fullscreen.

Re: 0.51: Categories filter shows duplicate entries

HI, yes I thought that a base folder path was a good way to prevent files from all over the computer getting in the catalogue, is that right or not?

So, on removing base path.... it seems the duplicates are no longer made with a category filter!

Re: 0.98.4: Category filter: no forward skip

To clarify:

I do
1. Filter files
2. select file & hit enter
3. use mouse scroll or cursor keys to progress through files

where Enter is set to Fullscreen, not View.
The scrolling gets stuck when progressing down the list, no problem moving up the list.
