it seems as if values are written to the. It also includes, if your phone is configured to allow it, embedded GPS data (known as geotagging. even resetting your PC via the built in Windows option does not seem to change this behaviour This data, known as EXIF data, includes a lot of benign information from the general (the time the photo was taken) to the very technical (the ISO speed the camera used and the color space profile the photo was recorded in, for example). icon:auto-resize: Automatically stores multiple sizes when writing an ico image (requires a 256x256 input image). By default, EXIF orientation is reset to '1' to match the actual orientation of pixels in HEIC. I have tested this over multiple versions and installs of XnViewMP heic:preserve-orientationtrue: Preserve the original EXIF orientation during HEIC decoding and rotate the pixels accordingly. any values in the "Read" and "Write" fields appear to be working properly The serial number field doesn’t show up in the regular EXIF tab. in XNViewMP, use the ExifTools tab of image properties. The serial number won’t show up in just the regular Default display of metadata fields. ) even when restarting XnViewMP or the system after changing these settings.Įxpected behaviour: Label name should update in the UI (e.g. Then make sure that the EXIF fields are chose in the drop-down at the top of the Metadata panel on the right side of the screen. Rename any of the Labels in the first fieldĪctual behaviour (bug): XnView does not update the label names anywhere else, and going back to this settings menu appears to revert the values to their defaults (i.e. Navigate to Settings > Metadata > LabelsĢ. Might require you to chose to store values in Program Folder (.ini) during setup, see notes!)ġ. In XnViewMP, the already built-in function to rename the five color labels (that is, to change the name of a color label in the overall UI of XnViewMP as well as change what label descriptors should be written and read into EXIF and other tag data) appears to not be working properly/does not update the names in the UI.Įffect: No customization of the label names is possible even though the option seems to be made just for this
(this issue has been persistent for me over multiple Windows/XnViewMP versions and installs) XnView MP Windows Version 0.98.4 64bits (May 28 2021) It's sometimes better to close this window to ensure new settings are stored, before using them. So, if yo want to read iptc and create xmp, in this window you must select 'Iptc, create or update xmp' mode.
XnView MP Windows Version 0.96.4 64bits (Jun 30 2020) When you open 'Edit IPTC/XMP', depending on settings in the least tab (options), XnviewMp reads only iptc OR only xmp metadata.
