Photo mechanic questions
« on: August 27, 2024, 06:41:35 PM »
Hi all, I'm relatively new to PM 6 and have been using code replacement regularly since discovering a year ago.

I am having issues where the text to my codes apply with quotes. I use this primarily for golf tournaments to add keywords for foursomes. So =G1= populates "Group 01, John Doe"

How do I configure code replace to avoid the " " ?

Photo Mechanic is not generating the quotes.  They're in your code replacement file.  If you remove the quotes from the file then they should no longer appear when you use them.

I suggest using a text editor and not something like a spreadsheet app if you're using one.

HTH,
