Version: 0.9.5-beta2 (using 3.5.9, compiled sources) Compiler: Target: i586-manbo-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.24.7-desktop-1mnb Mandriva 2008.1 kde 3.5.9 digikam 0.9.5b2 svn 16 11 2008 kipi-plugins svn 16 11 2008 legend is not copied to iptc caption or exif usercomment when you open exif or iptc window to modify all is in grey not able to activate the fields according to modify i tried with success to modify iptc caption with picasa 3 (linux)
It's not clear... legend == comments ? Are you set on right option in digiKam metadata settings panel ? Gilles Caulier
i use only the digikam syntax i see in the different windows i made an error: the synchronizing mecanism works well thus i can modify the iptc caption but there is a remaining pb i exlain in the right panel there is a tool to see and to modify "legende" and "Etiquettes" i see a value in "légende" field and another value in iptc caption field there is a synchronize mecanism which works well then i found the same value to exif "usercomment" and to iptc "caption" but if i want to use the tool in the menu "image" then "Métadonnées"/modifier iptc then select "légende" all is in grey and it's true for all other groups as "mots clés"
"Légende" and "étiquette" are French translations. Please switch digiKam into English to report here. Others developpers do not speak French (:=))) >but if i want to use the tool in the menu "image" then "Métadonnées"/modifier >iptc then select "légende" all is in grey and it's true for all other groups >as "mots clés" Which file format ? Sound like you trying to changes metadata to a read only file (as RAW for ex) Currently Exiv2 stable library (used in background to play with metadata) support only JPEG in writting mode. With next version, it will be possible to write in RAW tiff/EP files (NEF, PEF, DNG), TIFF, PNG, and JPEG2000. Gilles Caulier
my files did not change this night they are jpg type i checked the read-wwrite properties. all is ok with picasa i changed with success iptc caption and "keywords" fields with digikam with the tool in the right panel i changed with success also iptc caption and iptc keywords for english spoken (sorry) "légende" = Caption "Etiquette" = tags
Created attachment 28610 [details] version of the different modules
Created attachment 28611 [details] caption window
Created attachment 28612 [details] keywords window
Ok, know i understand.i check it. Gilles

I found the problem in libkexiv2. please checkout code from svn, recompile, install and try again... Gilles Caulier
is there a mean to minimize compiling and installing ?
just recompile and install libkexiv2. It's enough. Binary compatibility is preserved... Gilles Caulier
ok but with what statement (svn) i load the new version ot just the diff ?
go to libkexiv2 source dir, and type "svn up" After that you can compile and install That all... Gilles Caulier
that works well no more pb
Thanks for your report (and patience (:=))) Gilles Caulier
