Xmp - for the film roll #10362

Closed Jopp-gh closed 1 year ago

Jopp-gh commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Usually I didn't save xmp files, because this creates too much clutter in my (film roll) folder

Describe the solution you'd like

I never edit single images. And I assume, nobody working with Photography shots just a bunch of images. First I apply an adeguate style in batch then I fine tune, revise each image, adding bad/mediocre pictures to the stack of rejected images

Lately, i considered backing up xmp files, but the current implementation is rather cumbersome. I wish we could save xmp files for a whole film roll, not for each and every photo.

Alternatives

Currently i put xmp files in a folder inside my film roll and add inside, a screenshot of all the thumbnails of my film roll

Additional context

Please let us users decide if we want xmp files per file or film roll

I don't really follow you but why not just set them as hidden if they bug you and then they stay with matching raw files but you won't see them???

Select the images, history stack / write sidecar files, all at once.

I am on windows…I have a little program called autover which watches my folders and versions my xmp files. I back up that folder created by autover. I now have every edited version of the file that I have ever done backed up…you can set the extent of the versioning…

As for folders I export using a file export syntax so it creates a folder that mirrors the raw file structure identically in a parent folder called edits….I don’t open this with DT so no xmp files get created and I use it for sharing and viewing my images on my phone or other so that there are no xmp files to deal with and I don’t corrupt DT by doing external file management if I delete something..….

Thanks @todd-prior , but I'm on Mac.

@phweyland I know the button to write all xmp files at once.

But my request is, to save all modifications of all images of a film roll in one (1) xmp file. 20 pictures - - > save history of all 20 pictures - - > 1 xmp file
