Order of IPTC sections
« on: March 04, 2014, 09:18:03 PM »
Hello All,

So I just bit the bullet and upgraded to ver 5 of PM.  The FIRST thing that has hit me is the "new" IPTC editing window. Is there a way to change the order of the sections. For example the first section is "Image Content" then "Image Rights" followed by "Event and Location" and so on and so forth. The problem is that the fields I need to update are buried down in the "Status" section. I have to update Supp Cat 2 for every photo transmitted.  Scrolling down is a PIA. In version 4 the Supp Cat 2 is right there when I can edit it easily once I enter the caption info. SO the question is, is there a way to tailor the edit window to either change the order of the sections or remove some of the sub categories ?

Eric,

Yes, the new IPTC dialogs are customizable.  See the Accessibility section of the Preferences dialog.  You can customize the IPTC Info and IPTC Stationery Pad dialogs there.
