Search for Uncategorized Images

How do I find all uncategorized images in any given folder? The Categories Filter "Uncategorized" returns all such instances in my entire library. I have tried the search feature, but specifying Categories as a condition, followed by "Does not contain Categories" returns all images (in the selected ...

Re: Syncing EXIF and IPTC Data (2)

Thanks for your help, Michel. I'm much sloppier than I thought as it took me awhile to get the syntax correct, but alas, in the end I did get this done. Incidentally, I'm using Windows10. Again, thank you very much.

Syncing EXIF and IPTC Data (2)

I understand how to 'transfer' data from Exif 'Image Description' into IPTC 'Caption'. But how do you I (1) do the reverse --i.e. copy the IPTC 'Caption' line to Exif 'Image Description', and (2) erase all the info in the Exif 'Image Description'? I know that XnviewMP provides for 'cleaning' Exif ...

Syncing EXIF and IPTC Data lines

Hi: How can I copy the contents of EXIF 'Image Description' lines in 600 photos to the 'Caption' lines in their IPTC data sections? These photo files come from my iPad and have Metadata that were edited there (alas, I now come to find out that the app uses EXIF Metadata...). I'm finding that ...

Add Alignment to Slideshow Captions

Hi: The option of embedding Captions (aka Description, Title, Subject) to Metadata is a great tool. Unfortunately, XnViewMP offers no help in controlling where a Caption ends up on the photo in a Slideshow (it always places captions in the top-left corner of the screen). This strikes me as a major ...

Re: Sort By Category

Thank you, Michel08, for pointing me to the Categories Filter. I don't know why I didn't see this before, but it makes sense now. Again, I very much appreciate your help here.

Sort By Category

I haven't been using XnViewMP for a while because it would not sort photos by Categories. To my chagrin, I still cannot seem to find a way to do this in XnViewMP... I hope I'm mistaken and shall be grateful if someone will tell me that this is today very well possible!

How do I create new Categories

Hi: I just downloaded XnView MP and can't seem to create any Category Filters. When I Ri-Click on "Categories" (under "Special Items" on the left), I do see a line entitled "New Category" but nothing happens when I click on it. I've also tried to click on the little square above my images and/or ...
