Please make "Copyright Status" an editable option in creating metadata templates

I'm new to the Adobe eLearning suite, including Bridge CS4.  I've found a workaround in the forums for this issue already, but I really think this is something that Adobe should fix in the Bridge software itself.  Apologies if someone else has already posted this as a feature request in this forum, but as it seems I'm unable to search within just this forum, I gave up looking.
In a nutshell: "Copyright Status" should be a field available when choosing what IPTC Core metadata to include in a new metadata template.  And it's also not an editable field when looking at the metadata for an image!  The whole point of metadata templates is to make it unnecessary to edit a single field (like "Copyright Status") one image at a time.  Yet even with the new Bridge CS4, the Copyright Status field is not an option you can include in a new metadata template.  Surely it wouldn't be that big a deal to make the 3-item pick list of "Unknown," "Copyrighted" and "Public Domain" available on the Create Metadata Template checklist.  Or if having a pick list is too tricky to code on that form and it must be just a checkbox item, do that, and let us populate the text in the field ourselves.
Currently, it's necessary to tweak the metadata on a single image to include the "Copyrighted" status, then Export it and save it as a new metadata template, just to have that one field populated by default.  Supplying copyright status as part of a template is a fundamental need for anyone creating or dealing with large numbers of images, and it shouldn't require a workaround to create a properly inclusive metadata template.
Thanks!

In Bridge CS4, highlight your thumbnail, go to the File Menu and select File and then File Info.  There you will be able to choose your Copyright Status under the Description tab.  What a pain in the butt!  Mine kept coming up "Public Domain!"

  • Please make new features in Lion optional

    Dear Sir/Madam,
      First, I have to say after playing Lion for 2 weeks, I think Lion is really cool and improves many usability.
      But, one thing that I have noticed is that many new features are not necessary for all Mac users. E.g Auto-saving is not needed as many applications already supporting it (Office applications). This is a useful feature but I really want to save these system resources for my development work.
      I am a developer and I have the corei7 macbook pro with 8gb ram. During my development, my applications would use almost all 8GB ram.
      So I recommend that giving us an update to allow users to turn on the new features as they wish.
      Also I don't think Lion is as reliable as snow leopard. I am not sure if this is caused by any of the unstable functionalities?
      I love Mac and many other apple products. But please be aware of the reliability of the OS and don't make Lion another Windows Vista.
      Regards,
    Miao

    No one here can help you with those requests.  You should file feedback with Apple here.

  • Feature Request.  Please, please, please make file name a sort option.

    I find it a glaring omission that one cannot sort by file name in
    PE or Organizer.

    We're pretty much just users here. You should post your request using Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form.

  • How to customize my edit region which create from template page?

    I created a set of templates. It contains a edit region in each template. There's a problem when I create a new page from templates, I can't add tables in it. It says "Making this change would require changing code that is locked by a template or a translator. The change will be discarded." I need to open all liberty for my clients to customize their edit region. How can I solve the problem? Thanks

    Thanks for your reply.
    I have already try your method, but the problem still there. When I create a table, it says "Making this change would require changing code that is locked by a template or a translator." again.

  • No edit option in Media Manager for 8100??

    I haven't really received any response from the Software thread so I thought I'd try my luck here to see if anybody else has had a similar problem after installing all the software for the 8100.
    Ok, so a quick overview of what I have installed:
    O/S: Windows Vista Ultimate
    BB Desktop Manager v4.5
    Be sure to keep in mind that I have tried the Desktop manager v4.2, 4.3, and 4.4 and have the same problem with all versions.
    The Issue:
    I can't edit any audio files in the Media Manager software. Everything appears to install properly with no issues, especially after I disabled, Windows Defender, and the Firewall. The media manager software is able to find all of my media files on my computer, and is able to play/view them all as well. However, when I try to edit an audio file that I want to make into a ringtone, the "Edit" option is greyed out and I am unable to select it. This is the case with the v4.5. In previous versions where the user is supposed to select "Edit with QuickSound Editor," that option does not even appear in any of the drop down menus.
    I have completely uninstalled any previous versions and even selected the install to "Run as admin..." in Vista, but I am still not able to select the "Edit" option to create ringtones.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have been picking at my brain for the last few days.

    Its just my opinion, but Roxio Media Manager blows chunks. I use Audacity instead, and it free.

  • Feature Request: Please make a 5.0 (5.1 without woofer) option for surrou

    Hello Creative,
    please make an 5.0 option for your soundcards. There are still some people out there with high-end speaker systems. "These" people don't need a subwoofer, because they have full range front speakers (40hz -20khz +-3 db and at 30 hz -6 db). Most surround reci'vers have a bass management where you can redirect the LFE ( the ./"effect channel"/the subwoofer)to the fronts. So pls implement an LFE to front redirection into your drivers for audigy and x-fi, I think this can't be too difficult, because there are 4.0 and 2.0 option available.
    That is possible with my cheap onboard soundcard :-), so please show that creative is still the captain :-).
    It's no fun when you can't use your center speaker in games because of that.Message Edited by mjusik on -27-2005 03:54 PM

    I think there is no problem in doing that yourself. As LFE is currently only used by DVD Movies, (and EAX 5.0, if the developer implements that specific part), you only need to do redirection with your AC-3 decoder. If you download AC3Filter, you can use a matrix to say where every signal should go, essentially doing the redirection process you speak about.

  • Please please make the Multitasks feature in ios 5 optional , like the bluetooth or siri which can turn it on or off

    hi everyone
    please please make the Multitasks feature in ios 5 optional , like the bluetooth or siri which can turn it on or off
    thank you very much to all of you
    please do not ignore this request and think about it please

    This is a user-to-user forum. You're not addressing Apple here. If you want to make a suggestion to Apple, use the appropriate link on the Feedback page:

    I think it's also possible you don't quite understand how multitasking works on the iPhone. Most of the apps you see when you double tap the Home button are not running. They are recently used. Very, very few apps actually run in the background. Apps that do continue to work in the background are apps that play music or use GPS.

  • Lost "Edit Options" button used when downloading an update (ex Adobe reader) that allows you to click allow in order to receive the update. Can someone tell me how to get it back? Please?

    I t will tell you to look for a yellow bar at the top usually under the tool bar and it will ask you to "Edit Options" when you do, it will ask you if you allow the download/update or not.
    My problem is, I am not getting this yellow bar anymore that gives me the "Edit Options" button so therefore, I do not think I am getting any updates!

    You didn't lose that button. It is Adobe that is lost and haven't update their instructions for a long time :wink:
    The instructions on the Adobe site are outdated and do no longer apply to current Firefox versions and you can ignore those instructions and save the Adobe installer to your desktop and start the installation with a double-click on that file.<br />
    See [[How do I edit options to add Adobe to the list of allowed sites]]

  • Please make a swap partition optional at installation

    Because i have enough RAM i would like to skip the creation of a swap partition at the setup.
    Could you please make this available at the next (0.7) release?
    lubot

    As far as I remember Con Kolivas was testing some VM managers lately in his ck kernels.
    These include hard swapiness (in <2.6.8.1-ck4) and mapped watermark (in 2.6.8.1-ck4).

    Mapped watermark??
    This readjusts the way memory is evicted by lightly removing cached ram once the ram is more than 2/3 full, if less than the "mapped watermark" percent of ram is mapped ram (ie applications). The normal system is to aggresively start scanning ram once it is completely full. The benefits of this are:
    1. Allocating memory while ram is being lightly scanned is faster and cheaper than when it is being heavily scanned.
    2. There is usually some free ram which tends to speed up application startup times.
    3. Swapping is an unusual event instead of a common one if you have enough ram for your workload.
    4. It is rare for your applications to be swapped out by file cache pressure.
    Disadvantage: Less file cache.
    The mapped watermark is configurable so a server for example might be happy to have a lower mapped percentage. The default is 66 and a server might like 33
    echo 33 > /proc/sys/vm/mapped
    This removes the swappiness knob entirely and deprecates all my previous vm hacks (autoregulated swappiness, hard swappiness, kiflush).
    You must be aware that the normal system usually shrinks the memory allocated for buffers & file cache until it becomes close to ZERO, making almost all the memory available for user applications.
