Save the selected 'iptc stationery' pad in upload templates.
« on: April 28, 2014, 04:47:26 AM »
Hi,

I submit to multiple agencies, depending on the job at hand, and as a result I need to configure the IPTC in different ways depending on the agency I'm uploading to.

I ingest in my default pad which then contains all the information I need, and have created stationery pad templates in the upload dialogue for each of the FTP connections.

I save the FTP connections for each agency (as the folder naming structure is different for each as well), but the only problem is that the chosen IPTC Stationery is not saved for each FTP connection..  So I have to make sure I manually choose the stationery pad before each upload to the different agencies - despite selecting the saved FTP connection template...

Is it possible to store the chosen IPTC stationery template for each FTP connection, rather than it always being the last one used?

No, not currently.  The IPTC Stationery Pad's settings are global.  Some parts of Photo Mechanic do offer a 'local' IPTC Stationery Pad that is only used in a particular dialog (Ingest offers this).

The Upload dialog is another dialog where having a local IPTC Stationery Pad makes sense.

Another vote for that.
