image description (exifs)

Hello :-)

A question again :-)

I use vuescan (proprietary program, run under linux) to scan. This
programm allows me to write limited comments in the image (usually I
copy there what I read on the paper back)

I can see these comments in the "EXIFs image description" in Digikam,
but I fail to see how I can modify them with Digikam (I may be able to
do this with exiftools, but Digikam is much better :-)

any idea?

thanks
jdd

Go to captions & Tags on right side bar. Caption field modifiy Exif
comment if you turn right option in metadata settings panel (disabled
by default)

This question is easy... :-)

You can edit image metadata using the "Caption/Tags" tab in the right sidebar.
Or you can use the exif metadata editor from the menu Image -> Metadata ->
Edit Exif.

good luck

yes, this works.

However, Gilles, I don't see any option allowing metadata edition in
the right column, may be my Digikam is too old (V1.2 - but the last
version don't works on my openSUSE)

anyway I have just to edit some images (I happen to forget to delete
the data field in the vuescan window when I change image)

thanks

Go to Image/Metadata meny entry. It's a kipi-plugin tool to edit Exif/Iptc/XMP

In right sidebar, you can use template tab to assign pre defined
metadata template to images.

BQM can do it also in batch

In BQM, i also written a tool to remove metadata in batch with last 1.5.0
