Hello Everyone,
We are pleased to announce an update to the Photo Mechanic All-in-One Universal-Binary application for macOS. This new build addresses a number of issues present in the 8173 build.
This build of Photo Mechanic requires macOS Ventura or higher. If you are using a Mac with macOS Monterey or older, you will need to upgrade to macOS Ventura or higher to use Photo Mechanic. This version of Photo Mechanic is written for both Intel-based and Apple Silicon-based Mac computers.
This release is for current Monthly and Annual subscribers to Photo Mechanic or Photo Mechanic Plus, as well as those who purchased a perpetual license for either of those within the last twelve months.
macOS Ventura (or higher):

macOS:
• Fixed: Perpetual licenses incorrectly being considered as not valid for All-in-one builds as of Jan 1, 2025.
• Fixed: Removing an element from a repeating field, like 'Persons Shown' from the popup menu, hangs the application when a semi-colon is the chosen separator character.
• Fixed: Making a change to the repeating field separator character can cause multiple terms to be considered a single term.
• Fixed: Missing suggestions in Auto Complete from text file when a metadata field had similar matches.
• Fixed: SmugMug uploader error with accented characters in filenames.
• Fixed: SmugMug supported formats note doesn't show until dialog is resized.
• Fixed: Restoring last session on startup now restores Favorites and Navigator sort popup menu correctly, even when default preferences differ.
• Fixed: 'E' shortcut does not work in Preview window unless path is set to an editing application. (When using the Finder to open.)
• Added: Histogram updates when toggling between embedded preview and rendered RAW preview via the ‘Q’ key.
• Added: {clipboardtext} and {cbtx} variables. They evaluate into the contents of the system clipboard if it contains text (up to 2000 characters), or an empty string if no text exists in the clipboard. Thanks to Mike Price of Fairfield Photography for the idea.
• Added: {parentfolder} variable for retrieving the name parent of the image's folder.
• Added: Sorted Photosets in the Flickr upload template.
