Hi every one!
In the XnView IPTC-menu it´s possible to change ipctfields with clicking the write-to-all button.
For 8 pictures I want - in this way - to add "g37" to the category. Than I did a search for: IPTC-Category-g37. But XnView shows me only 5 pictures with te correct content. So I´ve eximed the not-updated 3 pictures andI tried to update them manually, but XnView refuses to make any changes, even every field (cat,key,caption,copyright). Did anyone made the same experience and -more important - how to solve that problem? Afterwards I used Exifer: surprise Exifer did the work and also XnView shows the right content. But that´s not the best way. I want to use only one program and that´s XnView.
Regards Dick
