Hello, I am a new user of PM, although before buying I tried the trial version a lot. I have one suggestion on this one - I ingest using {dats} variable, followed by a name of the particular assignment. As I am a newspaper shooter, I may be doing quite several assignments daily. Editing the Job name in its separate would be quite cumbersome.
It would be I think nice if you put a separate input field in the Ingest dialog which would translate into {job} or something. That way, one could have quite long directory making variables script, plus a separate input field to enter the job name quickly, without having to either go to separate dialog or scroll to the end of the variables string to do it manually. Something like this (vis the attached screenshot, with new things in red).
Where there is a second text input box for {IngestName} (or it could be directly {job} ), where to quickly input the current job name. There is also a variable {IngestName} (or again, just use {job} which could be put anywhere in the directory creating (or also the renaming) string.
In my opinion, this wouldn't be hard to implement, and could speed up the ingest process especially for people with more complex variable strings.
On the other hand, please keep the ingest dialog not growing much in size. Cram the fields together more, if you add this additional field (or other options). There are subnotebooks with less than 1024/768 resolution (some with 600pix height) screens, so being able to see the whole dialog on them is a boon. Especially if you lug all the photo equipment smallish subnotebook is a boon. I myself use Touhgbook with 600 height screen time to time...Thanks!
And thanks for the great support I have seen here in the older posts! That was the thing that (apart from the superb features) singled PM for me from other programs I evaluated to buy.
