Follow image description in next steps/images

1) Select a picture with description in EXIF/no IPCT/no XMP

2) Use Edit - > Metadata -> Rebuild XMP to create one or Edit IPTC and add a keyword
(update or create XMP option is checked in IPTC window)
** MUST rebuild XMP to have some data there or you'll get from simply write IPCT + update XMP this XMP:

Code: Select all

<?xpacket begin="ï»¿" id="W5M0MpCehiHzreSzNTczkc9d"?>
<x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" x:xmptk="XMP Core 4.1.1">
   <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">
      <rdf:Description rdf:about=""/>
   </rdf:RDF>
</x:xmpmeta>

* IPTC Caption created

*XMP description created

3) Use Edit - > Metadata -> Build IPTC from XMP
* Ups!!! icon shows we have IPTC but hmm... no data. It seems we need a IPTC cleanup if all fields are empty (no write to file), If you added a keyword is here, but no description!
* XMP description OK

Note: tested on 1.97 B2/B3
