Light caption
« on: December 30, 2022, 09:12:43 AM »
There used to be an option to select a caption box that just had the fields for a wire service. Did that option disappear?

Thank you,

Jeff

The classic IPTC layouts have changed from the way they were back in PM 4.5-4.6 but there are layouts that approximate them.  Open the Preferences dialog and navigate to the Accessibility page.  In the "Metadata (IPTC) Dialogs" section, click the Customize: "Metadata (IPTC) Info" button.  At the bottom left corner of the dialog that appears, click on the lightning bolt button and choose the [PM Classic] or the [PM Classic+2] item.  OK the dialog.  Then do the same for the "Metadata (IPTC) Template".

HTH,

-Kirk

Thank you!  Is there a version of BandAid that works with a current MAC OS? I've been looking at some old images that I shot with my Nikon D1 that need help?

No, the plugins are no longer available.
