seq array being saved as bag array #1

Closed MetadataDeluxe closed 3 years ago

MetadataDeluxe commented 3 years ago

tested on version 1.1.0

XMP properties that should be seq arrays are being written as bag arrays. There are many seq properties in IPTC Extension, and other popular schemas. Would it be possible to add an "XMP type" field to the View Editor?

Issue: When a file has no existing values in a seq array, i.e., no dc:creator exists, if a value is created, it is saved as a bag

Example: First dc:creator added to a file:

<dc:creator>
    <rdf:Bag>
       <rdf:li>CREATOR</rdf:li>
    </rdf:Bag>
</dc:creator>

Issue: When a file has an existing seq array, i.e. dc:creator already exists, if an additional value is added, the property is saved as a bag

Example: Exisiting values created with default Adobe metadata panel

<dc:creator>
    <rdf:Seq>
        <rdf:li>CREATOR1</rdf:li>
        <rdf:li>CREATOR2</rdf:li>
    </rdf:Seq>
</dc:creator>

After adding another entry "CREATOR3" with the Custom Metadata Panel 1.1.0

<dc:creator>
    <rdf:Bag>
       <rdf:li>CREATOR1</rdf:li>
       <rdf:li>CREATOR2</rdf:li>
       <rdf:li>CREATOR3</rdf:li>
    </rdf:Bag>
</dc:creator>

Thanks fo reporting this. We're already scoping this work and should have it in the next release.

This is solved and will be supported in the next release. We're buttoning that up now and should have it available here by the end of next week. Release via Exchange will take a little longer, as reviews are on hold due to MAX.

We closed this issue with release 1.2.0. You can now select Bag or Seq when creating a multi-text, multi-dropdown or tags field. We also introduced item reordering for multi-text fields.
