franky68 Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Hello, it would be great if the orientation of an image would be available as a tag in the "Catalog Tags" window so I can quickly select landscape or portrait images.

Murat Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 You can see it if you select "All" preset from the Catalog Tags context menu. There is a minor issue preventing it from previewing in the Customize window. Will be fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franky68 Posted October 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Strange... I cant see it either when I set the view to "All". But glad to hear its already there - so I'll just wait till it shows up in the customize window and I can make it visible :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murat Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Please try the 434 build that I sent you a few minutes ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franky68 Posted October 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 I did. The "Orientation" is not visible in the previous version nor the one you just sent. Its (as you said) not available in the customize dialog either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murat Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 I did. The "Orientation" is not visible in the previous version nor the one you just sent. Its (as you said) not available in the customize dialog either. Could you please create a new catalog and then again select "All" preset for the catalog.

franky68 Posted October 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Nope, its not available with a new catalog on 434 build either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgrondin Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 I just checked on my system. Daminion 0.8.6 build 419 The orientation is there when I select ALL. The information is in the "Proportion" Header just under "Media Format". It lists Horizontal, Vertical, and Square. Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franky68 Posted October 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 *lol Thanks Peter - I just found it. The "orientation" is strategically hidden under the "proportion" label ;). I still wonder why I didn't see it even under that name... I am not a native speaker but I feel that "proportion" describes something like 2:3, 4:3, 16:9 or whatever. While portrait and landscape would be orientations? At least in other applications I always saw that term beeing used. Maybe a native speaker can clarify?

pgrondin Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 Hi Franky; I would agree that most people and software probably refers to it as orientation, and usually just consider Portrait and Landscape. Proportion often refers to 4:3 16:9, but also the more general sense of wider than tall and all the variations of that. In this case I guess the inclusion of Square extends the set beyond the usual "Orientation". Overall, I would guess that most people when looking for the this info will look for Orientation, so I guess I would recommend that in preference to Proportion ( mostly on the fewest generated questions level) , but both of them work for me.

Murat Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 I am not the native English speaker either, but you are right: I've also checked a few micro stock sites (ShutterStock, Fotolia and 123RF) and they use "Orientation" word to distinct the images with landscape an portrait orientation. We will correct this on the next Daminion update. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franky68 Posted November 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 In the current build (449) there is neither Orientation nor Proportion. I checked the "all" setting and also "customize". "Media Format" now is directly followed by "Software". Am I looking in the wrong places again? Btw. In the "Properties" window its still called "Proportion". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murat Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 We've returned back to the "Proportion" tag name due to some possible incompatible issues between different Daminion versions. But this issue is still in our bug-tracking list so this tag will be renamed in one of the future Daminion versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
