Thank you.

What else will Enabling Catalog enable ?

I think I disabled it ages ago to prevent it writing Keyword Tags.

I don't know whether it is a problem with me or a problem with my version of XnViewMP v1.7.0

I had never before used the image tagging feature, although I have used it for years in FastStone and am well familiar with how it works in that program.

So, I decided to tag some images in XnViewMP so as ...

No - the problem is still there.

I just now checked and the problem has carried over to the new version 1.7.0

Saved IPTC Templates have no file extension and therefore do not display in the Load Template list.

THANK YOU !

The new improvements to the Edit Comment dialogue are NICE and much appreciated.

I expanded the boundaries of the Embedded Comment text box both upward and downward, making it much better for both editing and viewing Embedded Comments.

The fact that it remembers my changes to the ...

Version 1.6.5

In IPTC Editor, when I create an IPTC Template and click Save Template, the template gets saved but NOT with the .iptc extension; in fact, whatever type file it is has no extension at all; it is there with all the other template files, but without the .iptc extension.

Thus, when I go ...

Here are a couple suggestions for the Edit Comment Dialogue Box

Swap positions/places of the descript.ion text box and the Embedded Comment text box, thus making the Embedded Comment text box easier to see/read.

Make it possible to downsize the descript.ion text box while enlarging the Embedded ...

{XP:Comment} is shown, but when you write your IPTC, you'll have the correct value


Thanks; that works.

Now, all the other values I have tested work as you described, except for

Insert > EXIF-Image > User comment

When I choose "User comment", I get nothing.

I was hoping that would be ...

yes, it's normal. The field will be replaced when writing.

I don't quite understand.

Please use latest version


I have installed the latest version and my results are the same.

No matter what I choose from the "Insert" menu, I only ever get my choice in brackets without getting the actual text.

For example, I choose XP:Comment and I get {XP:Comment}, not the text of the actual ...

You can use {Creation Date[Y/m/d]}-[##]
With start =1 and step =1
You will get
21/06/2024-[01]
21/06/2024-[02]
21/06/2024-[03]
21/06/2024-[04]

Just a bit confused ---
Would not using [Y/m/d] yield 2024/06/21 instead of 21/06/2024 ?

Also, I don't think Windows will allow me to use the slashes ...

Currently using version 1.5.0

In the IPTC Editor, when I click the right-facing triangle at the extreme right end of each field, I get three menus, "Insert", "Insert From" and "Copy Into".

Insert From and Copy Into have always worked fine.

However, when I attempt to use the "Insert" menu, no ...

YES; even better; mouse over a thumbnail and see the entire comment would be great.

Thanks.

The "Edit iptc" window does not appear, it saves time


Thanks; I will definitely be checking this out.

I did for a while try adding Keyword Tags via IPTC templates and then I figured out that ...
