Applying XMP template from *.xxmp files to images doenst work for namespace fwc

Subject: Applying XMP template from *.xxmp files to images doenst work for namespace fwc

XnView: MP 1.00 - 64 bit
OS: Windows 10 64bit

When trying to apply XMP metadata templates (*.xxmp files) for xmp-fwc metadata fields it doesnt show up in GUI or get written into xmp namespace fwc of the files

Effect: XMP metadata templates for xmp-fwc metadata fields doesnt show up in XnViewMP GUI nor get written into xmp namespace fwc of the files

To reproduce:
1. Open image in XnViewMP (version 1.00)and do to Edit / Edit XMP / ... to XMP FWC (Custom field1 -10)
2. Write Metadata in some Custom field and click on "Save templates"
3. Set a description for this XMP template in the next windows an save with "OK" => Metadata applies into image
4. Open a different image now, got to Edit / Edit XMP / XMP FWC again and try to apply the same metadata..
5. Now "Load template" and choose your XMP template..
6. Metadata doesnt show up in GUI... or in the new file

Actual behaviour (bug): Using "Load template" with *.xxmp files for XMP FWC (namespace fwc) doesnt apply bug:

Expected behaviour: metadata should show in GUI "XMP-FWC" and should apply into image

Hi Pierre!
Its the same bug...

This is only the "full bug report" as requestet from a user...
Your workaround helped alot.

I guess empty arguments in the *.xxmp lines (sample below) means that the existing xmp metadata content in a file will not be deleted or get overwritten...

<fwc.CustomField4></fwc.CustomField4> => no change to existing metadata


? Can I delet this post?
