Working with multiple images
There are two types of multiple updates one allows you
to enter unique information for each image updated. The other allows
you to enter the same information into each image updated.
In order to reach these options, one must first search
for images to edit. On that form click one of the following
choices "same info for each" or "unique info for
each."
Please note that regardless of how many images “search
for images to edit” finds, Update multiple will
only effect those images currently visible on the form.
Unique information for multiple images
This form the looks like several single image editing forms stacked
on top of each other. It also behaves in much the same way. It allows
you to enter different values for each image.
You will have to scroll to the bottom of the form to find the update
button.
Please note that regardless of how many images the search form
returned, this form will only edit nine images at a time.
The same information for multiple images
This form is a powerful tool, but it should be used with caution.
As the name suggests, it is used to input the same information for
multiple images. The reason for caution is that with the other two
image editing forms one can see right away what information is being
overwritten by new data. That is not the case with this form. Simply
leaving a text box blank will not solve the problem either since
a blank text box will also overwrite “nothing” in the
place of whatever previously existed. The trick is to use the preferences
to select only the fields which are you wish to work with. Information
hidden by the preferences will not overwrite existing data.
