Title: Pull-down menus in EXIFtoolGUI ?
Post by: Jossie on February 06, 2013, 01:37:35 PM
Good evening,

although I notice that Bogdan is (currently?) not supporting the GUI, I would like to suggest an extension to its functionality.

Entering keywords, categories etc. is tedious and error prone. Thus a pull-down menu for specific tags would be very helpful.

I envisage the following in the workspace manager, e.g. for the tag "Subject":

tag name to display                 tag definition                           hint text
subject^                                 -xmp-dc:Subject                     nature | architecture | portrait  ...

This should then result in the right-hand panel, where one enters the tag information, in a pull-down menu to select the tag text (with perhaps multiple choice option). What do you think about this?

Anyhow, my sincere thanks to Phil and Bogdan for making these extremely helpful tools available.

Best wishes

Hermann-Josef
