Code Replacement
« on: September 14, 2015, 07:40:52 PM »
HI,

I have set up my own code replacements and they work fine however I was wanting to see if that when I do the code in the description/caption field is it able to then automaticlly come up in the keywords and persons shown boxes? As this would improve my workflow alot.

Cheers Mark

Code Replacement only works in the field you're editing.  It knows nothing about any specific field or if it would be useful for a variant of a replacement to be applied to another field elsewhere in a dialog.

That said, you can use Code Replacement in the IPTC Stationery Pad to apply multiple code replacements to as many fields as you like.
