I've been beavering away in my Image workshop. The view schemes for stacks and version sets are looking pretty neat, if I do say so myself
"Needs editing" is proving to be a bit of a higher hurdle however...
If I come across a photo that needs, fx, a crop, and it's not convenient (or I can't be bothered) to fix it there and then, I tag it accordingly.
In the 'editing' viewscheme, that forms the first pane.
So, the theory goes that if I select 'crop' I'll see all those images that need cropping.
I right click on one and send it to photoshop.
I save it from there as a new file, and otto picks it up and imports it.
Here's where the theory falls apart...
Ideally, I'd like this new image to pop up beside its' original, but for that to happen, photoshop needs to preserve the MJMD tag, and of course, it doesn't. It does keep the EXIF tags though, meaning there are constants involved. I focussed on the date, not really thinking about the others untill just now, I may have another look in the morning.
Anyway, I figured the easiest way might be to 'save as...' in the current directory using "[filename (name)]+constant" and then send that file to photoshop instead.
I figured I might need a batch file for that, and so need some help, either on that, or other suggestions?
