Info Tooltips options and additions
« on: November 02, 2013, 05:40:26 AM »
Is it possible please to develop and add to the Info Tooltips to give user choice as to what is shown in the same way as with the IPTC dialog ?

In particular what I would like added is the option for the caption and keyword fields to be included so they can be the only info visible. Whilst I can open the caption dialog and then use Cmd ] to advance it would be simpler to be able to just run the cursor over the images to check the captions and keywords in a popup window and, as has been the need recently on a few occasions, to ensure that the captions in those images being used in a slideshow or gallery follow one another sensibly.

Apologies if this is already available or there is a similar solution but I've done a search and not seen it.

I appreciate that you have other things on the go but hope this can be considered for inclusion in the future.

Thank you.

The ability to customize the text used in the Info Tooltips/Preview Info is documented here:

Thanks Kirk. No idea how I missed that.
