Feature request - More ID3 tag support (Key, label etc)

As the subject suggest, please include more ID3 tag support, I'd love to manage my library in iTunes alone, but now I rely on other applications to enter various bits such as:
- Key
- Label
- Catalogue nr.
and I'm sure there are a few others you can think of; but these 3 would be on my short-list.

Feature request: more xpath support in XMLElement

Hey guys,
Just wanted to submit a feature request. I'm trying to write code to find the number of Invocation service threads that Coherence uses. It would be very nice if I could use XPath syntax such as the following:
getSafeElement("cluster-config/services/service[@id='3']/init-params/init-param/param-value")
Since the API doesn't support that, I have to resort to something like the following:
XmlElement services = com.tangosol.net.CacheFactory.getClusterConfig().findElement(
        "cluster-config/services");
List servicesList = services.getElementList();
for (Iterator i=servicesList.iterator(); i.hasNext(); ) {
    XmlElement element = (XmlElement)i.next();
    if (element.getAttribute("id").getInt() == 3) {
        XmlElement value = element.findElement("init-params/init-param/param-value");
        System.out.println("invocation threads: " + value.getInt());
}I haven't quite gotten that to work yet, but it's probably close. :)
Thanks,
Matt

Matt,
There is a helper function in com.tangosol.run.xml.XmlHelper class that makes it almost as easy as using the XPath.
XmlElement xmlCluster    = CacheFactory.getClusterConfig();
XmlElement xmlInvocation = XmlHelper.findElement(xmlCluster,
        "cluster-config/services/service/service-type", "Invocation");
XmlElement xmlThreads    = XmlHelper.findElement(xmlInvocation,
        "../init-params/init-param/param-value");
System.out.println("invocation threads: " + xmlThreads.getInt());Regards,
Gene

Blackberry Complaint / Feature Request - Please add category support for calendar Items already

RIM: It's December 2010, and thousands of people have repeatedly asked for category support for calendar items for years now. In BB OS 5 & 6 we can assign categories to Contacts and Task items, but still not Calendar items? This makes no sense to me.
Many people rely on categories to keep their calendar items organized, and I'm baffled as to why such a simple feature request has continued to be ignored. Obviously BlackBerry's DO support Outlook/Exchange category syncing, since I can see all of my custom categories through the Task and Contact apps. When I add a new category for a contact, it gets synced between Outlook/Exchange and my Blackberry. The support is there. But for a professional/business smartphone OS, I'm taken back as to how this feature could be missing from the calendar in the first place.
Rim, please give us a response--a glimmer of hope--something to let us know that you are listening to us and plan on incorporating a category feature into the calendar! If the Blackberry OS didn't support categories at all, that would be a different matter and I would understand that maybe bit more development would be necessary to support this. But the capability is obviously already built in!!!
PLEASE listen to your customers RIM and give us this commonly requested feature as soon as possible!!!

You're welcome.
I'd also suggest you call your carrier blackBerry tech support and make the point there, asking them to give it consideration on the next OS upgrade. RIM does listen to their partners.

[Feature Request] Wap321 SSH/Telnet Support

Dear Cisco Developers,
we are facing a problem with your design choice of not to support Telnet/SSH on the Wap321. We bought this Product because it was one of the only Access Points with SSH and Telnet Support.
We need the SSH Support for a script that changes the WPA-psk key of the interface wlan0 on more then 20AP's every Week. Everything was good until we got hold of a new charge which came with firmware version 1.0.1.10.
Changelog:
"Due to security concerns, Telnet and SSH access options are removed in firmware version 1.0.1.10."
So I talked with the German Cisco Small Business Support and he said he will investigate and try to get it to the Second Support tier. Well it never came to that, he called us two days later and said that is was a BUG to Support SSH and Telnet on the WAP321 and it was never designed to be a Feature.
So i guess we have following options:
1.Bring back the SSH Support for the Wap321 in the next Firmware update
2.Provide Firmware version 1.0.0.3
3.Give me a Workaround for my task
So any help would be appreciated and i hope we are not the only ones that would like to see a comeback of this feature.
In hope for comments
Best wish

No Sir I do not.
According to the response from L2:
SSH is only enabled for customer to use it on switches.
Developers normally do not allow SSH (enable or protect with password) for end
user on any Wireless device. Management is done by web interface.
In this particular case SSH was enabled only due to some bugs which were
monitored during first release so it is not meant to be for end user.
Because of particular security risks, SSH is for troubleshooting by developers.
Currently there is no chance that they would issue any official firmware for this as
well as there is a little chance they would create special firmware for just a few
customers.
I am sorry for any inconvenience that this has caused.

Feature Request - Better Multiple Monitor Support

Lightroom's support for a second display has definitely helped my workflow. I hope the team will consider adding more flexible multiple monitor support in version 4. Here's why.
I've recently experimented with running one of my three screens in portrait mode. When this screen hosts Lightroom's secondary display window in Loupe view, my verticals finally get equal real estate for editing. While I've not done hard statistics on my library, I know more than 50% of my imagery is in portrait orientation.
I'd like to see LR V4 support three or more screens so I could set up as follow:
Screen 1 - main lightroom interface, would not need to be calibrated, for controls and navigation
Screen 2 - Portrait orientation, loupe view - this would be a calibrated display, all develop changes to verticals would be judged on this screen
Screen 3 - Landscape orientation, loupe view - another calibrated display, all develop changes to horizontals would be judged on this screen
If Adobe could make the app intelligent enough to route the image to the correct screen based on orientation (recognizing and respecting cropping that could change orientation) my edit sessions would certainly speed up and I could maximize the productivity of multiple screens.
I'd be happy with this, but I'm also stymied by the need to switch back to Library mode to tag images when my primary workflow has me in develop. Ultimately everything depends on the quality of the image. Before I invest in image-specific meta data, I have to process or at least "test-process" an image. IMO the Quick Develop panel is useless, once you become accustomed to the granular control of the develop sliders, it just doesn't cut it.
In the three monitor setup I described above I'd love to be able to configure screen 1, with a combination of panels from Library and Develop, so I could stay "develop centric" with immediate access to keywording and meta. The two additional screens would intelligently handle image display.
I think this might speed my workflow by 33% and having just returned from a Tour de France project that generated 23,000 images I need all the productivity help I can get.

Actually, this topic has come up a lot on this forum. At this point, I think we just need to get Adobe on board.
VeloDramatic wrote:
There may be another thread for this one additional thought. If Adobe does improve multiple monitor support, we should be able to optimize our previews for those screens. Even after prerendering 1:1 previews there are issues with DEVELOP doing its own thing (I believe) each time a new image is loaded. I make extensive use of the PREVIOUS button moving through my shoots and there's always a lag of one or two seconds while the develop preview loads before the button is active. In a desktop environment where multiple screens allow landscape and portrait images to be displayed full screen I'd argue that 100% of the host screen resolution would be the ideal preview. Hope that made sense.
Yes, faster switching would be nice. I'm not sure what that would take. As it stands, there's like "9" previews generated when you do 1:1s - 100% down to tiny thumbnails. Still, one at exact monitor size that does not need to be resized at all does seem like it would be the fastest - I'm a bit on a limb though at this point.

New feature request -- more flexibility in file management

I'm new to iPhoto and hope someone can help.
I have a large, existing image database (5000+) that I'd like to migrate into iPhoto. I have an established organizational flow where I use a third-party utility to rename my files using the EXIF date as YYYY.MM.DD_000X.JPG (where "X" is a serial number than is incremented automatically). The photos are then organized into a Finder folder hierarchy using YYYY/MM.
If in Preferences I check "Copy files to iPhoto library folder" then iPhoto copies all my files to the "iPhoto Library" folder, doubling the disk space consumed. That's a substantial percentage of my Mac Mini's hard drive capacity! Worse, iPhoto arbitrarily organizes the imported files into year 2000 and year 2005 folders, without creating folders for 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, or 2006. So if I import additional images in the future I have no control over how it will be organized in the Finder. My organizational scheme and workflow are hosed!
If in Preferences I UNcheck "Copy files to iPhoto library folder" then I lose other necessary functionality. For example, if I delete a file in iPhoto the actual file WON'T be deleted from the disk (even after "Emptying the Trash" in iPhoto). I verified this several times. The file structure on the disk and iPhoto's library will get out of synch unless I manually delete in both places, which is unmanageable if you delete a lot of photos! It also wastes disk space.
Can't Apple simply add a "Monitor folders" feature like Photoshop Elements and many other programs have which automatically detects when files are added or deleted from the directory structure the library points to? This would be soooo much better than forcing iPhoto users to live with the kind of frustrating trade-offs described above.
iPhoto is the 3rd or 4th image editing program I've tried over the years. I WANT to like iPhoto because I really like my Mac Mini, but the reality is I may at some point want to move on to something better. If I use iPhoto it appears I either have to live with losing control of my organizational structure or losing basic functionality like having photos deleted from the disk.
Am I missing something here? Is there a workaround so that I can get what I want from iPhoto?
Thanks!
Phil

Hi Phil
Welcome to the iPhoto discussions.
First thing to remember is that everything you want to do, all the organisation takes place within the iPhoto window. Ignore what goes on in the iPhoto Library folder, you simply never, ever have to do any work in there. In fact it is strongly recommended that you never touch or change anything there as it will profoundly affect the running of the app.
Given the above, you can import your pics into iPhoto and then Trash your originals. Yes, once you are happy that iPhoto has taken all the pics in, you can throw away your originals, this eliminates the problem of the doubled-up disk space. But, you may ask, what if I want to keep my originals. iPhoto does this for you. If you edit or alter a pic in iPhoto you can always revert to the original as iPhoto keeps the original.
<<So if I import additional images in the future I have no control over how it will be organized in the Finder. My organizational scheme and workflow are hosed!>>
Yes it is, totally done for - because you are not organising the pics in the finder any more, you're organising them in iPhoto.
You can organise pics in just about any way imaginable in iPhoto: by date, by time, by keyword, by ratings by a combination of them all. Want to find the pics taken in June 2003, no problem. Want to find only the pics of your dog taken in June 2003? No problem if you use keywords. Want to find all the pics of your dog that don't have your cat taken any month in 2003 except June? You get the picture.
Drag a folder of pics to the Source pane in iPhoto, it will create an album. You can recreate you current system in iPhoto quite easily, and then improve upon it. Keywords are particularly powerful, as are smart albums. I have a library of over 8,000 pics, and as I import them I add keywords. With a smart album I can find every pic of my daughter that I have, and as I add more they get added to the smart album automatically.
You can still continue to rename your files in whatever way is meaningful to you prior to importing. That doesn't have to change. Just do it prior to importing to iPhoto. The you can use Spotlight to find a pic called 2003.10.23_004.
Or you can just drag it from the iPhoto window to your desktop and it makes a copy - your original is still safe. You can e-mail pics from within iPhoto and so on.
The most important thing to remember is that your organisation is done within iPhoto. It does the heavy lifting.
If anything I've said is unclear, don't hesitate to come back and ask more.
Regards
TD

New feature request - More Zoom Levels at a Keystroke

Hi
I would love to have more levels of zoom available at a keystroke
I just took an image into Photoshop CS 5 from LR (I bet the developers hate this comparison - there must be considerable, if friendly rivalry in Adobe!) and remembered the joy of just hitting the "+" key maybe three or four times and then the "-" key till I have the image at the right size I want it and then throwing the image about with the hand tool in that way so that the image carries on after you let go (I can't remember what that is called -anyone help me?). It just seems much quicker and more intuitive than LR which lets you have one quick level of zoom and doesn't have that easy moving around of the image which PS has.
I suspect that problem for developers in being able to do this in LR could be to do with the way that LR deals with previews and the fact that it probably has to load and compute any adjustments you have already made to the image before it can even give you a fully rendered image at any given size.
Any feedback from LR developers or other people who agree with me would be much appreciated

It would be more than useful but I don't know if it's the previews or not. You compared with PS but even with C1s workflow the zoom works as you'd expect and pretty fast too. I'm sure Eric will give the scoop as to why LR handles it in this way.

Feature Request: More Local Adjustments

Sometimes it's nessesary to correct hue/saturation locally — change face colour or something like that. And it would be good to have such brush. Together with ability to change Fill Light, Black and Vibrance in a part of image. Why the current selection of brushes is so narrow?

+1 vote.
Although, its amazing what can be done with the current complement with some practice. For example, opposing color can be added to remove color casts... I often paint with brightness and contrast all the way down and exposure way up to bring detail out of shadows...
alex krylov wrote:
Why the current selection of brushes is so narrow?
My theory is that it is due to the limitation of the present design - limiting the brushes keeps it fast. People with inside knowlege don't much respond on the forum to these types of questions, so us outsiders may never know for sure... But if you think about how painted sharpening is implemented, its just a series of offsets that are applied to the global sharpen settings, so Lightroom doesn't have to do a bunch of different sharpening - just one pass, applying the net amount in each area.
Summary: I think the present complement of local adjustments has been carefully chosen to keep the develop module efficient in accordance with the present design, and to expand the local adjustments a great deal will require some redesigning. I hope I'm wrong and that it will be easier than I would imagine to add local white-balance & fill... If I'm right, I hope Adobe redesigns the develop module for Lr4 in order to expand the local adjustments.
Finally: My present thinking for Lightroom is that this will be too much for Lightroom 4, and that we are more likely to see incremental changes to the Develop module (maybe improved distraction removal) combined with new features like soft-proofing and photobooks... That said, I have switched my desire for Lightroom, to have better integration with external editors, so one can take it as far as possible in Lightroom, but be better able to integrate outside work done on selected photos.

Feature Request: More input resolution choice.

It really would be a tremendous help to be able to select more 16:9 resolutions between 1920x1080 and 1280x720, as that is an absolutely enormous jump. Particularly in terms of performance.
Supporting 16:10 resolutions would be great, too, since, half of the people that I work with have monitors with this aspect ratio and many with 1900x1200.

Hmm,
FMLE shows the resolutions of the detected Capture Device.
If you need other resolutions / aspect ratio you could use resizing and cropping.

Feature Request: more info in 'Reply' window

Perhaps this has been requested before but I haven't seen it so please forgive what may be rehashing an old request.
One thing I find inconvenient about responding to some Discussions posts is that in the "Post Message: Reply" page the user profile info about their Mac model, OS version, & other computer information is not displayed along with the text of their message. Since sometimes this info is critical to posting an appropriate reply, it would be useful to see it while composing a reply, just like it is in the threaded views of the topic's posts.

Of course tabs in one window will all close if the the window is closed (the red close button vs the (x) in the tab).
With a lot of tabs present in one Safari window, the tab names become highly truncated. Because of that it is too easy for me to accidentally close a tab by clicking on its "x" when I meant to click on its name, & too easy to lose track of which tab is which.
It probably is less of a problem with a large screen, but on a 13" MacBook it can be quite annoying, particularly if I'm trying to leave some screen space available for referencing the contents of other windows besides Safari's for some Discussions reply.

Feature Request: Control Text Orientation on Chart Labels

I notice that chart labels will automatically rotate 90 degrees counterclockwise when there is not enough space to display them vertically. However, I would like to be able to control this behavior so that I can make vertical labels when my charts are larger. A simple toggle option would be great.

In the Alerts tab of iChat preferences, select Video Invitation from the Event pop-up menu. Then select the Run Applescript checkbox and select Auto Accept.applescript from the adjacent pop-up menu.
Granted, this doesn't give you password authentication, but I don't believe anything is available for providing that capability.
Hope this helps.

Feature Request: LR stereo Photography support

I would really like to see LR support for stereo photography. Ideally the possibility for adjusting stereo-photographs. But at least import support for .jps, pns and .mpo files.
This way people who use 3rd party programs to edit stereo photographs can still benefit from the version and catalog management of Lightroom.
I know stereophotography is a small niche. But I consider Lightroom to be the end all photo management solution. And I know stereo photographers would love adobe for supporting them.
Keep up the good work.

Feature Request - More text capability

I use Lightroom for all my photo printing, and would occassionally like to print greeting cards, with titles, location information, etc. printed on the back panel. Unfortunately, the standard text blocks and identity plate don't provide enough options (eg. multiple lines of text - is there a way to do that?) It would be very helpful to have the ability to add text blocks and position them as desired from within Lightroom - eliminating the need to create text in a separate application. I see this included in the books option - can't you add it to other templates as well?
Thanks

Can you create a PDF from the Book Module and print from that? Seems like you might be able to kludge something together, although I haven't given it much thought.

Feature request: Slideshow module support for video files

I'm very excited about your MTS support!
Feature request: Slide show module support for video files...
Say you have 10 takes to choose from. Are you able to almost like SLIDESHOW view the 10 clips full screen so you can decide, like a playlist? Or rate them as they play? It would also be great, like SLIDESHOW to be able to export a MP4 with a title, the 10 clips you are working with, and maybe add an end title and a song, just like SLIDESHOW.
I have found editing stills like this in slideshow far faster than in any other editing program.
Basically, I just need a fast means to view or export an MP4 of a set of video clips to review. You are almost there.
great job!!!
Max

I was also disappointed that video is not supported in the slideshow module -I currently have to use another solution when I want stills mixed with videos, would be great to be ablo to keep it all in LR!
