Problems changing "Description / Caption"
« on: December 24, 2018, 12:26:38 AM »
I have been using the "apply stationery pad" function of Camera bits as selected from the drop down tool bar : image > iptc stationery pad
I have attemped to change the caption Western Canada to Toronto. I have made 2 different attempts first by selecting 3 images and changing the iptc stationery pad caption to Toronto. This merely added Toronto to the caption so it reads Toronto Western Canada. My second approach was to keep the caption deliberately blank and apply that to the selected 3 images to clear out Western Canada as a caption. This made no change in the caption. I have provided 6 screen caps with notation to show the steps I used. A solution is greatly appreciated!

You have selected the option to "prefix" the existing caption with the text. Select "replace" instead  ;D
