* Ability to change/omit default Keywords

[Anonymous]

Could we have an option to suppress the default multimedia keywords please? 99% of my multimedia files are source documents but are in jpeg format and when adding them the keyword gets set to 'Picture' instead of 'Document'. When adding files in bulk it's a real pain having to go back and correct them all.

Similarly (but less importantly) I would prefer to be able to switch off the auto-generation of the multimedia Title (which currently takes on the name of the file) since it is easier to see which files need to have (meaningful) titles given if no default is generated.

Very neat program - many thanks

But could we still have a fix for FH please?

The ideal situation would be to copy the Title and Keywords from the properties of the actual file

I've written a work-in-progress FH5 Plugin 'Keyword Update' which is available from the FHUG Knowledge Base. Not clever enough to use IPTC data, etc., but 'it does what it says on the tin': Existing used keywords are shown alphabetically, with counts, and the user can add further keywords. Then the user selects one or more keywords to be added to the selection of multimedia records, replacing any existing keywords on those records. If the plugin was started without selecting the required Multimedia records, the user is prompted to make a selection. The updated records are displayed as a Result Set. This has the advantage that it does not depend on either folder name or use of a particular IPTC field.

The Keyword Update plugin is now available from the Plugin Store.  Version 1.1 has a button for Online Help:
