feature request for the Place Tag

[rene]

Hey folks,

I'm suggesting a modification of the Place tag. There should be another line saying Continent or something.

 

So I could have the tag

 

Europe

- Germany

-- Hamburg

- Spain

--Madrid

North America

- USA

-- New York

- Canada

 

 

and more.

 

 

 

thanks Rene!

I would be happy if the 'Place' tag would work correctly. I have the problem that I can't add a new tag under 'Deutschland' since build 751 without some workarounds.

Hey Volker,

Hey Volker,

I read about that, but I never had that problem. I guess I badly expressed myself.

Hello,

 

to extend the Places Tag Daminion has to support the IPTC-Tag "World region".

"World Region (of Location Created)

Use this field to record the name of the world region of the location where the image was created. Note, the relationships established by the built-in list are only offered as "suggestions" and the user is free to enter another World Region if they choose. This element is at the first (top) level of a top-down geographical hierarchy."

 

I had organized the location information in the Keyword Tags before I moved to the Places Tag but I lost the World Region information. To have a new hierarchy in the Places Tag I would have the information back and a more structured hierarchy. Following the recommendations there are 8 entries for the continents or world regions and all other details below this highest level.

 

I never had problems with the Places Tag: enter or delete tags.

 

Regards, Uwe

Hey Uwe,

I know I could use the existing dropdown menu, but than I would loose e.g. the State tab.

 

This feature is not important, it would simply make it easier to organize the places, but not a must have. there are much more important feature, that would be must haves or at least very important.
