Possible to remove selective Metadata?

Hi everyone
I am quite new to Javascript, but have managed to create a script that can modify a metadata tag and also add metadata tags (e.g. create a custom namespace with various tags).
I have however not found a reliable way to remove metadata. Sometimes one can delete a metadata tag (and the tag's value) by writing an empty string into it. Other times it leaves the tag name and just deletes the tag value.
Does anyone know if there is a simple way to delete a whole namespace (e.g. all the camera-raw settings) along with all the tags?
Any suggestions welcome!
Regards, Nigel

Nigel,
I can't tell you how to clear the whole namespace, but I might be able to help figure it out if I could see the code you are working with.
I am sure that other javascript noobs (like myself) would like to see what you came up with. It would be great if you could share your successful metadata scripts with us. You can do so using the Exchange link below.

  • Possible to remove exposure metadata?

    I've created metadata templates in Bridge for a variety of reasons, but cannot find any way to completely strip the metadata out.
    Specifically, I need to remove the exposure data (fstop, shutter speed, ISO, file size, etc...). Would like to keep the camera model in there however.
    How is this done? (Bridge CS4)

  • Is possible to remove the extra that comes with firefox 12 "search google , search surf canyon, search duck duck go ,search wikipedia when a text is selected?

    Hello !
    Is possible to remove the feature (search google , search surf canyon, search duck duck go ,search wikipedia) when a text is selected?

    I'm not sure exactly what you are referring to, but I know that surf canyon and duck duck go aren't included with Firefox by default. It is possible an add-on took over your Firefox.
    Do this:
    Update to Firefox 15. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
    Then, Reset Firefox. [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]
    Does that help?

  • Is it possible to remove yellow text background in the entire document?

    I have the same problem as the one that is mentioned here:http://forums.adobe.com/message/1155089 In my case the yellow background is already in the pdf-file which was created with a virtual pdf printer and then manipulated with another pdf-editor.  I noticed accidentally that it is possible to remove the yellow background in Acrobat Pro as if I'd edit an object. Getting rid of it on each page by hand would be a daunting task. Is it possible to do this somehow with the entire document? All help would be much appreciated.
    cheers
    Btw: The yellowish background does not appear in other pdf viewers.

    I'll try to describe the process but the exact numbers will depend on your document - as I said earlier when I ran a test of your file I got 3.4%, but you may not.
    Your file has a mixture of color spaces (CMYK/RGB/etc.) and so you must first run the Convert Colors tool from the Print Production Panel to get everything into a consistent space, or Preflight will choke. Run the default profile to convert to the SWOP v2 profile.
    Open the Output Preview tool from the Print production Panel and hover over one of the yellow areas, write down the percentage of yellow. Hopefully nothing else in the document will have the same percentage.
    Now open Preflight from the Print Production Panel, switch to the Single Checks tab.
    Open the Options menu, choose "Create new Preflight Check".
    Name it "yellow boxes" and apply it to "Page contents" and "Current file".
    Select the Colors group and pick "object uses Yellow with a percentage of..." - press ADD.
    Configure it with "Equal to" and your percentage (no % sign)
    Click OK, then switch to the Single Fixups tab.
    Options menu > Create new Preflight Fixup
    Name it "move yellow  to layer"
    Choose the Layers category, "Put objects on layer" and press ADD
    In the "Objects identified by a check" dropdown, select your "yellow boxes" check.
    In the Layer name field, type "yellow boxes"
    Click OK, then click the Fix button to run it.
    You'll get a message to save/close and reopen the file.
    When you do, (hopefully) all your yellow boxes will now be in their own layer.
    Open the layers navigator on the left side of Acrobat's window and turn off the eyeball for that layer.

  • Is it possible to remove leading 0's?

    If I have a column called id_inst in tableA of type String
    and having a value of 0000203,is it possible to remove
    the leading zeroes from it?
    Select LTRIM(id_inst, ??
    Is this possible?

    There is of course no need to strip leading zeroes before storing a numeric value into a number datatype since Oracle will not store leading zeroes anyway.
    How a numeric value retrieved from the database is display is completely under the control of the requester via the to_char function:
    UT1 > select fld2, to_char(fld2,'009') as c2, to_char(fld2,'999.99') as c3
    2 from marktest;
    FLD2 C2 C3
    1 001 1.00
    2 002 2.00
    3 003 3.00
    5 005 5.00
    6 006 6.00

  • Is it possible to remove "Contacts" from my Mac mini and the reinstall it?

    Is it possible to remove "Contacts" from my Macmini and then reinstall it?

    The Contacts program has changed the name of a contact that I had a correct email address.
    The example you gave (now removed by a moderator) doesn't show that the email address changed. It shows that the recipient's name associated with the address changed. I don't know why that happened, but it doesn't necessarily indicate a problem with Contacts. You might have had two contacts with the same address.
    I don't seem to have a Address button in my toolbar.
    Open a message-editing window and select
    View ▹ Customize Toolbar...
    from the menu bar. From the sheet that opens, drag the button labeled Address upward (not downward) into the toolbar if it's not already there, then click Done.
    Click the button to see a list of your contacts. You can make multiple selections.

  • How can I remove selected sections? [js][CC2014]

    Hello,
    I'm trying to remove selected sections from my document.
    I figured out how to remove them by index number like this:
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var mySections = myDoc.sections;
    mySections[1].remove();
    When I try to limit the removal of sections to just my selection, I keep getting errors. I've tried:
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var mySections = myDoc.sections;
    var mySelection = myDoc.selection;
    mySelection.sections[1].remove();
    And:
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var mySections = myDoc.sections;
    var mySelection = myDoc.selection;
    mySelection[0].sections[1].remove();
    But I keep getting Error 21 undefined is not an object on line 5.
    Any help is much appreciated.

    I'm trying to remove the section not the content. It would be the equivalent of selecting the first page of a section in the page panel, then right-clicking on it and clicking on "Numbering and sections..." and then unchecking the "Start Section" checkbox.
    That's what the first code snippet does. But I was only able to do it by index number.
    I've read in other posts that it's difficult to specify selections in the page panel using scripting. I'm not sure if it's even possible.

  • Is it possible to remove the submit form button that's automatically created when you distribute a form?

    I have created a form for my boss and distributed it. She doesn't want the submit form button to appear as people don't need to submit the form to anyone, just fill it in and keep a copy. I can't figure out how to remove this button. It's not one I've created, it's the one that it automatically generates when you don't have a submit button in your form. Is it possible to remove this button or do we just have to live with it? I am using Adobe Acrobat X Pro.
    Thanks

    You can have more control on the email subject/ to and CC Email address, if you use a regular button and place the code in the click event.
    Refer to the attached sample below.

  • Is it possible to remove my hard drive from the Macbook and install it in a new Macbook Pro?

    I currently have a 2009 Macbook and am wanting to upgrade to a new Macbook Pro.  I have upgraded my hard drive in the macbook to a 500gb and have a duel boot with Windows 7 installed with Boot Camp along with other software that I do not want to lose.  Is it possible to remove my hard drive from the Macbook and install it in a new Macbook Pro?

    A much better solution is to hook your two Mac together and the first time you start the new Mac and it asks if you wish to recover data from another Mac, answer yes. This will invoke Setup Assitant which will do the job for you but intelligently.
    I know because I just used Setup Assitant. It worked like  a charm.

  • Is it possible to remove "Revision" from standard check in

    Hi,
    Is it possible to remove or disable the revision text box in the standard check in screen. This number can be changed by the user each time the document is checked in. It can be changed to go backwards and use duplicated is the user changes it without giving an error i.e. 1 - 3 - 2 - 3. The documentation says "The revision increments automatically with each check-in of the content item, so generally, you should not change this value"
    Is there a way to remove/disable this from the standard check-in to prevent people changing it.
    Thanks

    Kizume and Rhm Zanz it should be still there as that is what manages that specific feature.
    In the top menu bar, where is says:      Finder   File   Edit   View   Go   Windows   Help
    Click on the Go, and in the same time click the option key on your keyboard near the space bar.  In that the drop down menu list the word Library will appear.
    Click on Library and Finder will open, look for the Preferences folder. Within that folder which should be in alphabetical order look for the file named, com.apple.sharekit.recents.plist
    Drag that file out of finder and unto your desktop. Close out the Finder window and close out all other your applications, including Safari, and reboot your Mac and once it turns on, reopen Safari and look at your share sheet. Any recents should be gone. That file named com.apple.sharekit.recents.plist will recreate itself on a clean slate in that folder. Should you encounter that you shared something again to a contact with Safari's share sheet, be sure to follow the same directions.
    Cheers!

    When formatting your column to date/time, pick Date & time, and then pick the letter i in the circle to the right. Then scroll down and pick "No time"

    Thanks for this, though after looking at it I'm not too inclined to use an app that requires getting into the terminal. Way too technical for me. But thanks.
