Edit XMP: need automatic update for quick search [Closed]

Post by Gwenael Q. »

Hello,

- Make sure "Settings > Browser > quick search > IPTC" is activated
- select an image,
- "Tools > metadata > edit IPTC": add a given keyword in one field. then hit "write".
- as soon as the edit IPTC has closed, type the given keyword in Quick serach field -> image is found and displayed. Works as expected

- Same steps but with Tools > metadata > edit XMP. Make sure option "create or update IPTC" is activated in the dialog options.
- as soon as the edit XMP has closed, type the given keyword in Quick serach field -> no image found, nothing displayed. Not expected behaviour . User has to change folder then come back to current folder to be able to find the image with quick search and the new keyword. Things should work the same way they work with edit IPTC

1.4.2

Thanks for listening

Sorry.

Hello, thanks for the good work.

Not 100% sure about replying in this post to explain mi issue, but seems related .

" Tools > metadata > edit XMP. Make sure option "create or update IPTC" is activated in the dialog options.
- as soon as the edit XMP has closed" -> the thumbnail dissapears from the lighttable, it'll show back again if I click to other folder and return, or if I use Quick search.
Right at the same time that thumbnail dissapears, some options from XnView in titlebar go greyed:

(settings still accesible from gearwheel icon, and you can quit program from the window X button)
