Version: 1.0.0 (using KDE 4.3.5) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Hi, when editing the metadata of a picture, i.e. opening the Caption/Tags dialog, Description tab, there is a text field to enter Captions. It comes with a little selector for choosing the language. This selector offers dozens of languages to choose from. If you want to enter multi language captions for each of a collection of images, e.g. german and english, you always have to pick the languages from that veeeery long list. Highly annoying and time wasting. Would be better to select the languages to choose in the settings and then offer separate text fields for each of them.
One quick and easy solution would be to automatically store recently used languages and offer them at the top of the list.
Marcel, I vote with this solution... Gilles
