General Discussion and Questions / Re: ExifTool Perl launcher is ...

Last post by stefanjan2 - May 19, 2025, 01:27:56 PM

I have never seen this message and ExifTool has no built-in downloader/installer.
The text "Learn more in Settings > Automatic File Downloads" is probably a hint.

Thanks for your confirmation. Seems strange that I think I only see this when imatch is open. Have turned off the notifications so in future download will be silent.

Trying to understand why I am seeing the attached messages on my laptop but not on my desktop.

I use Synology Drive Client to synchronise files in both directions between desktop, NAS and laptop.

I'm wondering whether these messsages are being triggered by Exif from imatch or Synology Drive Client. They seem to only appear when imatch is open. When imatch is not open Synology Drive Client synchronises without these messages appearing.

Where you use the variable, wrap it into

<TextBlock>Your variable here</TextBlock>

General Discussion and Questions / Using XAML code in a 'foreach'...

Last post by PandDLong - May 19, 2025, 08:48:48 AM

I am trying to insert a line break into a Text Overlay in the Batch Processor while using the 'foreach' formatting function. It is inserting the XAML code for a line break but it isn't interpreting the code.

This expression:  {File.MD.city|foreach:{value} {remaining|is:0,,+;pereplace:+==<LineBreak/>}}

gives:   City 1 <LineBreak/>City 2

I have tried various other ways to insert the <LineBreak/> but always get the same result.

Am I doing this wrong?  
Or am I expecting too much  (IMatch variables already do a lot) and XAML markup can't be used inside a 'foreach' loop?    

Thanks for the help

The OP may have activated Auto Hide for the Categories View, and then forgot about it.

I actually use Auto Hide with all the Views (except of course Events, which has a little different design), in order to have more space for the File Window.  Auto Hide is a very nice feature.

But Auto Hide works only for Panels, like the File Categories Panel.
The Categories View cannot be hidden.

Or do I miss something

Edit: Yes, I guess, I am wrong. Forget this post (I wanted not to delete it), I am a bit irritated by the almost equal names.

Not sure that I follow.
The Categories View is never hidden. And the best way to solve your requirement. The Categories Panel is used for assigning files to categories.

I found it. The Categories panel was hidden so when I clicked on Categories, I just got a blank window.

And no, browser independent (FF and Chrome)

Good to know. I usually test FF, Chrome and Safari.
