Common edition of IPTC for muliselection

Post by PBY »

Hi,

After my problem (http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.p ... 056#p94056), I think that the IPTC editor is missing the following mode:

In multiselection mode, instead of displaying the first image, the editor should display a multi selection mode, with already all fields cleared (like Clear all on the first image). The best would be to display the common value, but I think that it will a lot more complex to do it.

And the for keyword page, pressing Enter key should do exactly the same thing as pressing the Add button (it isn't the case now after a Clear all).

This feature request is also valid for XnviewMP.

Sorry, but I retested with a freshly installed 1.98 version, Enter key and Add button have definitely not the same handling. See the screenshots:

1 - Opening of IPTC editor:

only when nothing else has the focus.
After writing a keyword in the textbox, the textbox still have the focus, and pressing enter at this moment will add the keyword to the list, but in a strange way.
