XnView Software

Sure. Attached is one of the only ones small enough for this forum to let me attach it; let me know how to send you bigger ones if you need them. Thanks

Using XnViewMP 0.93.1 (64 bit) on my Macbook, I've just added some new photos and when I try to categorise them, all the categories are greyed out, when a photo is selected (see attached screen shot). (If I select an old, already tagged photo, it becomes active). I have never seen this before, but c...

When selecting photos using the Category filter, I noticed some photos appear a number of times. On exploring the XnView.db file with sqlite3, I noticed that there seems to be mass duplication of paths; specifically entries that start '@' which appear to be my top-level photos directory, and also fu...

You would like when you add a keywords in IPTC view, the changes is made in database too, right? Sort of.

For example: I keep copies of all our photos on 2 machines, my wife tends to work on the desktop, me the laptop. ...

Thanks for the quick reply! How are you removing them, Make sure you have options set under: -Options>> Metadata>> Read/Write to the db. Yep, I've got that set. I think maybe I was being impatient in this element, because if I unset a category (either by selecting the photo and clicking "remove cate...

Apologies if this is a really basic question, but I'm new to XnViewMP (and IPTC). What I want to be able to do is to 'tag' photos in some way with custom tags (like 'holiday', 'family', 'mum' etc), maybe multiple tags per picture, and have those stored in the file data so that I can then easily sear...
