11/27/2023 0 Comments Xnview mp how to use categories![]() In 'gestion de categories' I only have 'auto correction.', Importer fichier catégories, Exporter fichier catégories or Effacer tout. Even though I have already added some categories, in this pane, everything is empty, why? Can you explain the saving / archiving process? How should cataloguing information be saved and backed up to XnView? In 'groupe de categories' I have Attribué/Historique or Suggérés. The Category Sets manager has all the necessary tooling to manage your sets. button in the top-left corner, you can create more custom category sets which will be shown by default under the system-managed sets. It's very irritating that I cannot attach screen shots to explain my problemīy pressing the Manager. I cannot see where to access Cataloging Sets at all I am not a web expert. Select à new group of photos, and so on.I have been reading the information on Cataloging Features and find that the instructions are not clear enough for me. It's easier to create empty new categories before, and add photos in these categories. When you will modify categories, select a set of photos having a category, modify or unmark category, and unselect photos to make xnviewmp write new keywords into photos. (I think you should not add keywods in "Edit iptc/xmp" window, settings are in the least tab, and results may be different than using categories) If you choose IPTC, you can check "write hierarchical keywords" If you choose XMP, Xnviewmp will use xmp:dc:subject, and xmp:lr:hierarchicalSubject when writing xmp keywords. Then, see settings metadata to choose a method for writing further keywords, or à new method if you want. When hierarchy is used, keywords are in xmp-lr (xmp-lr:subject) field. In XMP, keywords are list-type without hierarchy for xmp-dc. If you used different methods or different softwares, it's possible that iptc keywords contains both hierarchized or not hierarchized keywords. Maybe, reading can be different if the string is built without spaces (Elephant/Black) or with a space (Elephant /Black) ? ![]() ![]() In iptc hierarchy, a separator character is used in a single string (Animals/Elephants/Black = 1 keyword), and xnviewmp can read this. Without hierarchy, list of keywords, often displayed with commas. You can use also Exiftool tab in info pane for this step. You should first verify if all your tags are iptc keywords or xmp keywords. How do I easily organise or edit the categories? I want to delete the / separated categories, and keep the tree structure, but I will need to ensure that every / tag has a corresponding tree tag, and that any file tagged with a / tag is also tagged with the corresponding tree tag. Is the tree structure the normal way for XnView to display categories? ![]() So I now have a huge number of tags, many hundreds of them. I can't tell which have done what without going through each photo individually. I should say that some tags have across as a tree structure, some have some across in the / separated format, and some have come across as both. The images have all been tagged in MS Photo Gallery,(PG is no longer supported and has lately begun behaving erratically, making tagging of more than one image at a time rather difficult). I have approx 40,000 images, organised in a folder structure based on years (ie a folder for 1999, another for 1998 etc).
