Source for the label field used to describe metadata?
Posted: 10 Sep 24, 18:03
 
How does Tiger determine the label used when displaying metadata? For example, the only tag in my metadata for keywords is in Iptc.Keywords tag, but when I look at Photo data
in the generated album the label shows Keywords, not Iptc.Keywords. I have no problem with dropping the Iptc.

On the other hand, I have a metadata tag GPS.GPS Img Direction with a value of 350.8 in my metadata, the generated album shows the label GPS.GPS Img Direction with value 350.8 degrees. I'd prefer it to show just the word Direction for the label. Is this possible?

By the way, while the help file says you can view an image's metadata by right-clicking and choosing "list metadata," you actually need to right-click and select Extensions first, then List metadata.

I missed updating some of the jAlbum pages about the change to listing metatadata, so I have updated them and all the references under Tiger skin too. Changes are to:
Skin/Tiger/Concepts/Lightbox
Skin/Tiger/Concepts/Map
Skin/Tiger3/Lightbox/Buttons
Skin/Tiger/Lightbox/Photo data

Geotagging
JAlbum/Glossary/L

Correct

Yes, use the following way:
Direction=GPS.GPS Img Direction
