Can be closed. GeoSetter offers great search & filter functionality on any EXIF or IPTC information and I check for missing coordinates in GeoSetter. BTW, it also offers to rate images in browser mode with rating being stored in the image metadata, so I can do all metadata polishing in 1 tool.GeorgD wrote:what about "NO/red GPS" that I am more interested in that in "GPS"?![]()
Yes, it's a nice tool. What do you see from GeoSetter in XnView?JohnFredC wrote:GeoSetter: What a nice tool!!!
There are so many modern and improved graphics utilities available now. Very difficult to select which to use.
For me, XnView needs not to add detailed functions for geotagging of photos - it's a very special use case with according, good software for it. As XnView / XnViewMP has a focus on organizing and browsing photos, those functions shall be improved by inspiration from GeoSetter and others - IMHO mainly an optional small map showing the pic location (yes, it's in XnViewMP, but not in full screen) and a search and filter for EXIF/IPTC data including position info, e.g. a friend asks "show me your photos of city x and surroundings" or "show me your mountaineering photos (=above 2500m)" - how shall I do using XnView (no sufficient position filtering) or GeoSetter (no good viewer)? It's a use case not really handled in both softwares but easy to automate (instead of manual tagging of all pics). Nice addition would also be an export of a picture list into GoogleEarth for spatial browsingxnview wrote:What do you see from GeoSetter in XnView?
AutomatedQA Docking LibraryJohnFredC wrote:(I have seen the panel docking/management library that GeoSetter uses in other software. Wherever it comes from (does any one know?), it is the best such implementation of docking I have encountered outside of the Corel products such as PSP). The Geosetter docking model does not also support a tabbed view for any panel arrangement, though. Not sure if that is a library limitation.
Really? There is too many options for me.....JohnFredC wrote: The Metadata Save options are well designed, clearly understood, and very useful:
You save/restore layout in MP??Workspace name and save. Any panel arrangement can be named and saved... and switched to within seconds. Divider positions are accurately stored and re-stored.
I really like knowing exactly and feeling secure about what is going to happen when metadata is saved (the "where is it?" questions, mostly). IMO XnView isn't clear enough about that. The best way to "know" that is to have explicit control and GeoSetter's finely grained options are good.There is too many options for me...
Unless I missed something, MO does not allow the user to name a layout, save it to a file, and restore it later. The prenamed layouts work mostly OK, but there is only 1 "free" layout at a time and MP does not preserve it when the user switches away to another layout and then back to the free layout...You save/restore layout in MP??
