Hi and thanks for your handy piece of software!

I would really love to be able to store often used parameters for ExifTool direct.

For example, after having cropped my photos (with JPEGCrops), the Exif/IPTC data get screwed. Only remedy is to run "-all= -tagsfromfile @ -all:all -unsafe" TWICE in order to have things fixed. If I could save those parameters and apply them with a single click... that'll be perfect.

Cheers

Other than the PreviewImage which isn't copied in the first call, I can't see why you would need to do this twice.  Is this the reason?

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

Hi geewee,

What to say... somehow forgot about this. I'll try to figure something out. Thank you for reminding me.
