Hi, Jens. I’ve been using Shotwell since I switched from Windows to Ubuntu in 2010, and have more than 20,000 images catalogued and tagged using it. I had hoped that it would be available on Windows and Mac OS, but by the time I acquired a Mac in 2013, a Mac version was no longer available, so I’ve been using it in a Virtual Ubuntu machine on my Mac since then. This works, but it’s annoying to have to start up Ubuntu every time I want to look at my images, upload from camera, etc. If a Mac version of Shotwell isn’t on the horizon, I really need to look at a way of migrating to a native Mac application. The first requirement would be a way of exporting all the metadata collected within Shotwell in such a way that it can be associated with the image files and then imported, bearing in mind that I have a lot of RAW images and Shotwell can’t (probably shouldn’t?) write metadata into them. Best of luck! Michael Hendry _______________________________________________ shotwell-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/shotwell-list
