Capture of EasyTag software where a solution similar to the one described in
this report is used.
SUMMARY
After reading this message (
http://digikam.1695700.n4.nabble.com/digiKam-users-Update-metadata-for-multiple-photographs-td4708829.html
) in the mailing list, and having wished for the same thing in the past, I
think it would be convenient to have an option to save a current metadata field
to a selection of photographs using the Metadata Editor. The Batch Queue
Manager could work for some cases, but it is not as flexible.
For instance, you want to add a title and description to all pictures in a
selection, or just edit some XMP field. Instead of going one by one, clicking
on "next", a little button could be added to the left to each field to apply
that change to the picture selection.
I have attached a screenshot of another software that does a similar thing. In
this case, EasyTag, a metadata editor for music files. Notice the little square
buttons at the rightmost part of each field (Title, Artist, etc.). These apply
the current content of the field to all the selection. I think something
similar could work very well for digikam.
