E.g., like so: http://sundman.iki.fi/shotwell-tags.png After selecting both files and invoking "modify tags" the 3 tags that the selected pictures have are shown in the (scrollable) list of existing tags. The first tag, "bar", is checked (because all selected pictures have that tag) and the other two tags had their checkboxes in the indeterminate state (because some of the selected pictures have the tag and some don't). After that I clicked the "baz" checkbox once to make it selected (which would cause all selected files to get that tag) and a second time to make it unselected (which will cause all selected files to not have that tag). So, if I now were to press the OK button the "baz" tag would be removed from the right picture and the other tags would remain as they are. It feels a bit silly to explain this in such detail, since there are thousands upon thousands of programs that work like this, and I really can't believe there are developers that haven't used this functionality many, many times already. Oh, well, there you go anyway. :-) Regards, Marcus _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
