![]() Those questions had been on my mind and using these locations had been more or less what I had thought to be the ideal places. Thank you very much for this clarification. on which you can assign it („military personnel”, „clergy” etc.) If applicable, you can group them in categories of people - this will help when you will search by expanding the tree, will help in filtering and, also, will help when you do not know who is photographed but you know the social group, status etc. „Gougelet Pierre”) and depending on your internal conventions, titles could be at end („du Plessis Andre, FRPS”) - preferable - or at the beginning („Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew”) or both („Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, KG, KT, PC, ADC(P)”). Same stands for „Where” (places) and „When” (events).įor the „Who” you should write the names starting with surname (eg. Right now, I am using categories for the names of people in the image, though I'd appreciate to get some feedback as to whether categories or keywords would be the better, more appropriate place and why, i.e field size limits etc.Īnother related question: where can I find a mapping of XnViewMP fields and the corresponding metadata field?Ĭategories for the „Who” (people) is the recommended way to go. One thing I would really find useful, if after adding a leaf in the categories pane, that leaf were placed according to its place in alpha order, rather than always at the end, where I then have to move it to its proper place manually. The right-click menus differ and I am slowly coming to see the differences and the different conditions for either.Īlso I am finding that some of the things, like moving leafs in the tree, can be done, though perhaps not in the most obvious way, by dragging and dropping I have been working with both the 'catalog filter' pane as well as the 'categories' pane and I find that one can do things in one, but not the other for obvious reasons, but it takes some time for a newb. When does the write to the image take place? When I move to a new image or when I close down the app? My main purpose is to use XnViewMP as a metadata editor because I want to record as much of this information as part of the image and make it available for searching. ' checked now, because I do want to export to the image. ![]() It raises another question for me: the assigned categories only stay in the database, they do not become part of the image metadata?ĭo you use Catalog only, or write categories in metadata (Settings>Metadata>Write.)?
