New metadata editor

I've updated the patches for a new metadata editor plugin. It adds support for the fields supported by Photoshop/Bridge/Lightroom, and GPS location data as well as keeping support for the original GIMP IPTC fields. Now the same metadata can be handle between GIMP and Adobe products.

Unrelated to the editor are some issues with GIMP when saving some XMP tags that need looking at.

Enjoy.

New metadata editor

You're welcome, and i thought so as well :)

Working on some cleanup i was asked to do as well as a few more tweaks i noticed i should do. You may need to upgrade to Exiv2 v0.26 after this patch. I've had issues with the prior version, but it could just be issues with the Ubuntu version i had on my system as well lol.

Hi C R,

Updated the patch per Mitch's requirements, and fixed some issues with the importer/exporter portion of the code. That part probably needs more stress testing than i managed to give it (lol). I forgot to mention previously that the new editor also lets you save/load template files with your metadata depending on the various needs you may have. These are plain text xml files. See
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769820 for the latest patch and there are screenshots posted as well to give you an idea of whats there.

Excellent work! I look forward to giving a thorough testing after the Inkscape hackfest is done.

Thanks for doing this. It's going to be great not having to use other software packages just to handle metadata. I'm sure other graphic artists will agree, and I look forward to shouting about it post-hackfest. :)

New metadata editor

Thanks, hopefully there aren't any issues left in the code :)

Note that there is a bug with saving XMP data in GIMP i (or anyone else) still need to fix it, but that's a whole other issue to deal with. Haven't been able to isolate if it's an issue with GIMP, Gexiv2, or Exiv2.

Something about invalid namespaces (error 102 from the XMP SDK in Exiv2) but the tag it fails on is a valid one. I don't get any or similar errors on EXIF and IPTC tags.

Not sure when i'll have the time to tackle that one.

Have a good one.

Hello Ben,

I have two questions:

1. The metadata editor seems to provide UI to enter DICOM metadata, but the viewer doesn't seem to support viewing DICOM metadata. Is that temporary?

2. Only labels in the editor dialog are translatable. All the user-visible strings that are in combo boxes etc. are not. Is that intentional?

Thanks!

Alex
