Editing IPTC–IIM/XMP

[Escal21]

1. Clearing or replacing the values of a particular IPTC field on a set of selected pictures is definitely an absolute and urgent requirement; I read somewhere in the forum that you agreed but did not know how to implement it; may I suggest that a “Clear/Replace original values” command could be added to the field menu on the right side of the field with effect on click after confirmation? And possibly in the action list of the Batch convert interface too?
2. In MP, it would be much more comfortable to have the Options checkboxes and dropdown list permanently displayed under the “Clear all fields” and template buttons — pretty much as it is in XnView.
3. Editing EXIF and IPTC values in the EXIF and IPTC panes of the browser was very nice feature in XnView which only missed the possibility to edit simultaneously values of several pictures; it is not available anymore in XnView MP, and that’s really a pity.
4. Obviously of lower importance, but still, it would be nice to have a Sort button on the Edit history windows, wouldn’t it?
