How can i add tags to multiple images at the same time in RawTherapee? If i mark some images in File Browser, there seems to be no way to edit IPTC Data for this photos together. I cant believe, that i have to open every photo in a separate view to edit metadata only for this single photo.
RawTherapee isn’t really designed for tagging images. There is a proposal for batch editing tags though: Batch edit of IPTC tags by Bezierr · Pull Request #6851 · Beep6581/RawTherapee · GitHub.
Have you tried using a profile? Open one photo, edit the IPTC data to your liking, then save that profile in RTs profile directory, named for example my_iptc.pp3.
Then select other photos in the file browser, right-click and say Profile operations, Apply profile, My profiles, my_iptc.
Is that what you’re looking for?
For quicker workflow just ctrl click the “copy current processing profile to clipboard
” and check the metadata box.
Then use the paste processing profile
button on a range of files selected in File browser view.
I may be missing something but doesn’t the .pp3 apply all of the image adjustments, not just the IPTC meta-data?
P.S. XnView MP can apply the same IPTC only to all selected files in it’s browse view - I just did it.
The pp3 can contain a single setting. Thats critical to working with Rawtherapee imho. Ctrl click on the save profile icon and check the box you need.
OK, thanks!
