Seeing IPTC keywords in detail mode

Post by SpeedDevil »

When you are in the details listing mode, is it possible to get a column which lists the IPTC keywords? (I know you can get it in a tooltip, but it would be handier if you could just look down a list to see them)

Hello Speeddevil,

there is an alternative:

Go to options/view/fullscreen and checkmark the option "show information",
in the field below you can add all the (IPTC) items you want from the metadata.

Next thing to do is to set the "show information" flag in the the view submenu.
Too bad this flag isn't remembered the next time you start XNVIEW again, Pierre ??

I know, but that's not really an alternative, then I have to look at each picture, and if you have thousands that could take weeks.

But if it was a long listing you could just let your eyes scroll down the page, and that would be a lot faster to see if some where missing something etc.
