Hi,
My camera creates an image both in raw format (Nikon, nef) and a jpg.
When the camera-produced jpg is good enough, I just want to keep it,
leaving it untouched by DT. No xmp-file needed or even desired. For the
others pictures, I use DT to process the the raw image and export a new
jpg, overwriting the original camera-produced jpg. For those pictures I
want the xmp file.
In other words, I would like to have an xmp file *only* for those
images that I have actually edited. No no xmp-files for images that I
have not touched/edited.
I don''t think DT is currently providing this in a convenient way. It
can write xmp files automatically for *all* images, but that is too much.
It is possible to achieve this selective xmp-export manually by first
selecting in lightroom the 'untouched' images, inverting this selection
and then choose "write sidecar files' in the history stack menu. This
however, is cumbersome, tedious and error prone. I am looking for a more
robust and automated way to achieve the same.
It would make sense I think to write an xmp file together with the
export, So I was thinking if I could add this option to the code.
I would value some comments or feedback if this option would be
worthwhile to pursue.
Kind Regards,
Bertwim
