This might be of interest for many. Comments welcome.
The upcoming release of IMatch Anywhere WebViewer (the browser-based IMatch version) for the first time offers features to view and
modify metadata, keywords and categories directly in the browser. Whether you run the browser on your PC, tablet, smart phone or TV set.
I call this feature
FileLens. IMatch WebViewer users access this feature by selecting one or more files in the file window and then clicking on the new File Lens button or pressing <E> on the keyboard.
The FileLens then opens and presents this view:

The FileLens gives direct access to rating, label and collections with the controls at the top (large enough to be used on touch-only devices).
It supports single / multi-edit, similar to the old IPTC editor used by IMatch 3. You can change tags for individual files or for all files currently loaded in the FileLens at the moment.
Per-tag undo is implemented (undo changes for any tag), access to "recently used" entries and also the thesaurus is available for each tag.
When the "Data" tab is selected (as in the screen shot above) one or more sub-tabs (pages) are displayed. These pages present different 'aspects/views' of the metadata for the file. Similar to Metadata Panel layouts used by IMatch, if you will.
In order to support devices with smaller screens like smart phones, tablets or TV sets, I want to keep the number of metadata elements displayed on these sub-tabs small. I also want to limit the number of sub-tabs to a maximum of 3 or four. Currently I have "Standard", "Copyright" and "Camera Data".
Currently
I'm trying to figure out a "best" default set of metadata tags. This is where you come in.
+ Which metadata tags would you like to see and edit?
+ How to divide these tags into pages?
See the attachment below for a first, rough, outline of tags.
Remember: The key is
simplicity - because many IMatch Anywhere users are not IMatch users!
Note: The IMA Admin can setup a custom layout with custom tabs. This means that the FileLens can be easily customized for corporate requirements.
