Greetings,
I am very happy to be able to save different combinations of settings in the Ingest and the IPTC Stationerydialog boxes, and recall them with a single click of the "lightning bolt" drop down menu. I have several different sets for me and my student photographers, some for personal work and some for work work. As you might imagine, this can get confusing -- and I often find that I have applied the wrong IPTC info to a folder full of photos.
So, I have two requests:
1. The saved templates have a name in the drop down menu. It would be great if that name could be displayed at the top of the dialog box, so it would say something like "Ingest: Ken Personal" or "IPTC Stationery Pad: Joe Smith." This would make me instantly aware of which saved set I was using.
2. This may be much more complicated. When I save an Ingest template that uses the "Apply IPTC Stationery Pad to Photos" check box, it doesn't actually save the IPTC template -- choosing that Ingest template just uses the most recent IPTC stationery. It would be great if the *saved* Ingest dialog could remember which *saved* IPTC stationery pad was associated with it. That way when I choose an Ingest template, I get the associated IPTC template at the same time.
Thanks for the great program.
