Hello Pierre,

sorry for my late reply.
In GUI we have tab "options" with checkboxes
- keep current value in case of no change and
- change only empty values
Why are these option unused in case of only 1 image is selected.
these options are only useful for multiple images
I regret; but I totally dis-agree.


yes but i don't understand how to use it
The command should be as follows: (I have not tested)

Code: Select all

exiftool.exe -f -json=jsonfile
with jsonfile ( e.g. to delete Title):

Code: Select all

[{
  "SourceFile": FILE,
  "XMP-dc:Title": "-",
}]

By the way:
As we have also listtype-tags in XMP-Edit dialog tab "Options" we should have a third option:
- add values of lists to existing values.
But I agree that
- in case of using json format
- this option will be valid for all listtype tags.
Using an argument file would allow to use this (third) option for each list seperatly.

Best regards
herb

Right, it works. i'll change it. But currently when using exiftool on RAW, options can't be used...
See issue for current status and some details.
