Hello,
if I ingest files with option
- <Never open contact sheet> or <Open contact sheet during ingest> the finish-info is in the foreground. So I can close the info with spacebar.
- <Open contact sheet after ingest> the finish-info is in forground as well. But I can not close the info spacebar. I have to use the trackpad.
I think the easiest way to run PM in the field is to use the trackpad as less as possible. I have to "right"-handle my laptop, while holding on my monopd with my left hand.

There isn't really anything I can do about that. Once the contact sheet window is opened, it becomes the active window, and while the Ingest Progress window looks like it is active (it is a "utility" window) it no longer has focus because the Contact Sheet window has focus.
Sorry,

Hi Kirk,
two issues, on Mac OS X 10.4.6 Intel:
1) in file browser pane double click on a folder
in file browser pane, right click and select new folder inside folder we just double clicked
name new folder
select all images in current contact sheet (cmd-a)
move all selected images (121 D2X NEF's) into new folder (this new folder is inside the folder
containing the selected image)
this result in an endless spinning ball
2) I selected the preference option to safe tag and color label in xmp/iptc of all files
I color labeled a bunch of pictures purple
I opened the same folder in iView Media Pro 3.1b10 but no labels were selected
I opened the same folder in Bridge (CS2) but no labels were selected
what am I doing wrong?
Cheers, Fons.

We're looking into this.

Nothing. That is not its function. It does not enable cross-application functionality. What it does is makes sure that if you open up a JPEG that has been color classed, and tagged that if you resave the file in Photoshop (or other apps) that when you come back to Photo Mechanic the file will retain its tag and color class.
The interoperability you desire would have to be added to a future version.
