Reset or Edit IPTC Fields Stored Values

Previous values used in IPTC fields are stored so that values can be auto-filled as a field is entered. I would like to remove some of the "stored values" for a field. How can I do this?
Thanks,

You can batch change. Select the photos you want to edit, batch change, leave the field empty, and check the "replace" checkbox.

How can i achieve this?
Thanks,

looks like you might be looking for a custom sequence manager.
you might want to consider using a trigger to do this.
unfortunately if you use just one trigger you will probably get a mutating exception.
so you may need to do a multiple trigger approach
make a place to hold the rows you want to look at
i called mine tad_mgr
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE TAD_MGR IS
* This package spec holds the row ids of the tad table to be used in the 3 trigger approach
type ridArray is table of tab.ID%type index by binary_integer;
newRows ridArray;
empty ridArray;
END;
/your 1st trigger clears out any left over rows you have.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TAB_1ST
    before INSERT of ID ON TAB
declare
* This is the 1st trigger in 3 trigger approach to manage seq cds on the tad table
begin
                TAD_MGR.newRows := TAD_MGR.empty;
end;
/your second triggers puts your new or updated row into the container
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TAB_2ND
BEFORE INSERT
OF ID ON TAB REFERENCING NEW AS NEW OLD AS OLD
FOR EACH ROW
declare
This is the 2nd trigger in 3 trigger approach to manage seq cds on the tad table
begin
             TAD_MGR.newRows( TAD_MGR.newRows.count+1 ) := :new.id;
end;
/finally your last trigger does the updates.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TAB_3RD
AFTER INSERT OF ID ON TAB
declare
This is the 3RD trigger in 3 trigger approach to manage seq cds on the tad table
aSEQ tab.seq%type;
aId   tab.id%type;
begin
for i in 1 ..TAD_mgr.newRows.count loop
    select ID, SEQ into aId, aSeq from tab where id = taD_mgr.newRows(i);
    for c in (select id, seq FROM tab where seq >= aSeq and id != aid ) loop
        update tab
        set seq = c.seq + 1
        where id = c.id;
    end loop;
end loop;
           taD_mgr.newRows := taD_mgr.empty;
   end;
/I just did this for the insert just as an example but you can change the triggers to insert or update and change the logic accordingly

Editing a field in ALV and validating the newly entered Value

Hi Experts,
   I have an ALV report in grid display (not object oriented). My requirement is to edit a field on the output and write the validations to validate the value that was edited on the ALV output.
This can be done using object oriented coding by using the method check_changed_data. For this to happen, i need to change the entire scope of my report into object oriented, which is like reinventing the wheel.
Since my report was developed using classical ABAP, what needs to be done to get this functionality. Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks.

in the FM 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' import parameter IS_LAYOUT check out the columsn EDIT and EDIT_COLUMN. Also Use FM 'REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET' to get list possible event and pass a subroutine name which will be called when ever event is fired.
example:
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET'
    EXPORTING
      i_list_type = 0
    IMPORTING
      et_events   = l_events.
READ TABLE l_events WITH KEY name = slis_ev_top_of_page
                               INTO g_event.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    MOVE top_of_page TO g_event-form.
    APPEND g_event TO t_events.
ENDIF.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
    EXPORTING
      i_buffer_active    = 'X'
      i_callback_program = t_repid
      is_layout          = t_layout
      it_fieldcat        = t_fieldcat[]
      i_save             = t_save
      it_events          = t_events[]
    TABLES
      t_outtab           = g_editpos1[].

How to make a field with inserted field's values editable?

Experts, please help!!
I have a form with 2 views.
View 1 has a field named "Name". View 2 has a field named "Notice"
On view 2, I set up the default value for "Notice" as Concat ( Name, " has enrolled this year")
The form data will be submitted to sharepoint library.
I tried to edit "Notice" field on view 2 and submitted it to the library, but when I opened it I didn't see the changes I made.
Is there any way to make the field "notice" Editable and being able to save the chaanges on View 2?
I know if I set up the value for notice just by text string without inserted value, it will capture my changes but that is not what I want.
Please help, thanks.
yuhong xiao

Hi,
According to your description, you might want that "Notice" field has a default value when form is created and users can be able to change the value of that
field.
As a workaround, you can add an action rule in “Name” field via InfoPath to fill the default value in “Notice” field only when “Name” field is not blank and “Notice”
field is blank.
Settings of the rule are as below, you can modify it based on your need:
Here is a link about how to add an action rule in InfoPath form, you can use it as a reference:

Copa there is a option for reset value field / quantity value filed

Hi
As per the sap standard in copa there is a option for reset value field / quantity value filed. We
use this function to reset a quantity or value field depending on the
billing type (For eg L2 (Debit Memo) G2(Credit Memo). This means that
the condition value set in the field is replaced by value 0. Due to
this quantity value filed in copa reflects nil. My client requirement is when profit center document is generated System should display the quantity as nil.
i have tried some enhancement but these enhancement is only used in case of PGI . But in the case of debit and credit memo their is no PGI. first we create debit not request (va01) then billing(vf01) then document is generated .
Can we do the same thing in profit center Accounting? When PCA document
is generated System should display the quantity as nil.
Please let me know some user exit or substitution or Bte we can use ?
Anjali

hi Jerry,
Very appreciated the link you sent. In this article of this link, it gives an example of a conversion from an external to an internal format:
1. '1234 ' -> '00001234'
2. 'ABCD ' -> 'ABCD '
Just wonder why the external format '1234 ' has to be converted to '00001234', what's the purpose of doing this converstion?
Thanks!

Editing IPTC core 16 bit images

Does bridge CS3 support editing the IPTC core on 16 bit images? I've been working with a photographer that has a 16bit work flow and I noticed that the IPTC fields of the 16bit files are not populated nor can they be edited.
If you look at the file info in PS everything is there and can be edited.
I'd also like to know if the data fields of the "metadata" tab from PS is accessible from bridge. I can't seem to find the fields that correspond to that pane. These images are for Getty submissions so the Keywords and release status are critical.
Thanks
Brian

Strange
If you can add metadata to the IPTC fields in PSCS you must see them in Bridge and also should you be able to edit the fields that have the pencil icon at the end in the metadata panel.
To be sure could you try to develop and save a raw file from your own production in ACR using the 16 bit option and see if you can edit this files at the desired places?
If this is also not possible you could try the purge cache for folder option via the tools menu and even the reset preferences for Bridge option with restarting it while holding down the option key and choose refresh preferences.

CS3 Extended - IPTC field limit of 32 characters?

When I open an image, then save it - Photoshop will shorten the information in the Credit field to about 32 characters - BUT not all the times!!?? PS has saved this shorter version to the side in the 'pull down' area. I'm not positive if PS is shortening or using the 'saved' wrong version.
I have two questions -
Is there a character limit?
Is there a way to remove typos in the 'saved' area of Credit or other IPTC fields within PS?
Thank you
Lloyd

If you store a 33-character text in the IPTC Sublocation field in LR, do Metadata > Save To File, and then check the metadata with Exiftool, you'll see that the IPTC:Sub-location field contains a truncated 32-character value, while XMP:Location contains the full 33-character value. This conforms to the industry standards.
The terminology is horribly confusing. In the JPEG file format, there are several sections of metadata, including EXIF, IPTC, and XMP. EXIF and IPTC are defined by older standards (cameras create EXIF metadata, and applications create and add to both EXIF and IPTC metdata). The XMP section is defined by a newer industry standard, and it was designed to incorporate all of the fields that can be stored in EXIF and IPTC; a subset of the XMP fields (a "namespace") is called the "IPTC Core" and defines fields similar to the legacy IPTC fields but without the restrictions.
A recent standard, the Metadata Working Group's Guidelines for Handling Image Metadata 2.0, defines the rules for how the three sections of metadata (EXIF, IPTC, and XMP) should be "synchronized". LR appears to mostly conform to that standard.

Some IPTC fields 32 characters truncated by Lightroom

Hi,
I've got lots of images with certain IPTC fields (like "location") having length of greater than 32 characters. I'm noticing that these are being truncated to 32 characters when using "Save Metadata to File" in LR4 beta.
I'm not a metadata expert, but my understanding is that the "old" IPTC-IIM spec had character length limitations, but not XMP or "IPTC Core", which has been around for some time now. I think the following quote summarizes what I'm seeing:
Do we need to worry about older storage methods?
< snip >
This can happen several ways, but one cause is the legacy IPTC-IIM schema limits the number of characters per field. An IPTC Core field might be truncated when saved in a corresponding IPTC-IIM field. When moving back and forth between tools that only understand the legacy format and those that recognize both the newer and older formats, synchronizing the information becomes extremely important.
Source: http://www.photometadata.org/node/38
Is what I'm seeing expected? Is there some way to tell LR to allow IPTC fields (like "location") to be greater than 32 characters? Does LR3 exhibit this same behavior or is this a LR4 specific issue? (I'm not a LR3 user, considering the switch to LR though)
Thanks
Chris

Missing IPTC fields

Does anybody found the IPTC fields: categories, scenes and subject codes?
They are quite important for journalism, but aren’t included yet? (like most of the creator infos)
It would be nice, if I also can make sets/buttons from other IPTC information like from the keywords.
Any press photographer here, who got the same IPTC problems?
Greets.

kgelner wrote:
"Category" is there, as is "Subject Reference" (could be used as subject codes?). I'm not sure if there is something there Scene would map to.
The ones that are there, you can add to any metadata set you are viewing by opening up the IPTC tab at the bottom of the screen, and pressing the checkmark next to the IPTC field you desire to add to the current metadata view (any metadata element from any category can be added to any view, they are just grouped as they are to start for convienience).
Any that are not there - why not add them? For "Scene", open the "Other" tab at the bottom, then type "Scene" into the "New Custom Metadata" at the top of the field list, then enter some value for that field and press return. Now it will appear in the list with a checkbox, which you can add to the current view - and it should export with the image when you ask Aperture to export metadata.
With all due respect, it absolutely amazes me that so many people don't understand how IPTC works. You can't just "map" fields any way you want, and if you want to follow the schema properly, you can't just put whatever data you want to in each of these fields. The ability to add custom metadata fields in Aperture is pointless, as they don't actually have any IPTC relevance.
Therefore, adding fields to compensate for the lacking IPTC support doesn't work as these custom fields don't map to existing IPTC fields when the image is exported, so the data is lost. Pointless waste of time.
Check out http://www.iptc.org for all the details. You should quickly realize after just a little reading that Aperture, even version 2, is lacking proper IPTC support. Frustrating, as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, iView MediaPro, Microsoft Expression Media, and so many others properly support IPTC.
However, to be fair, you are correct that Category is there. Subject Reference in Aperture is Subject Code in IPTC, however, in testing I have found that Aperture has serious export issues with metadata, and this is one of the fields that does not export at all. The four fields that do not export are:
Object Attribute Reference -> IPTC Field: Intellectual Genre
Sub-Location -> IPTC Field: Location
Country Code -> IPTC Field: Country Code
Subject Reference -> IPTC Field: Subject Code
There is no Scene support in Aperture 2 (this is one of many missing fields in Aperture 2).
I have a compiled list of IPTC fields, the properly mapped fields in Aperture 2, and the missing/broken fields in Aperture 2 if anyone wants it.

Preserving a field's value on changing the field access parameter?

I have a form that has a number of fields that are set to "protected" and have calculation scripts on them. If the user selects a specific radio button option elsewhere, the form sets the .access parameter to "open" and disables the calculation so that the user can enter whatever they want into those fields. The problem arises when the user imports XML data via Acrobat. The radio button choice is made (since it is bound to an element in the schema), but when the form changes the access parameter of the fields to "open", it fires the calculate event on the fields and we lose the value assigned to those fields from the imported XML.
Is there any way to preserve the fields value when it changes from "protected" to "open"? Here is an example PDF w/ XSD.
The more I dig into this the more I think this might be an issue with calculate.override not disabling the calculations on a field, even when it is set to "open" - at least until the user manually edits that field.

Ok, worked out a solution. It's specific to my application, but maybe someone else will get something out of it. What I did is moved the calculation script from the field I am changing the access parameter of (call it "Field A") to the fields that feed into that field (call them "Field B" and "Field C"). Now, when the user triggers the exit events on B and C, each one fires a script that updates the value of A. For my application, this works only because B and C are hidden from the use if they toggle the radio button allowing them to manually enter A.
Basically, instead of A pulling values from B and C to calculate it's value, B and C check each other and push values to A.

Hi Girish,
People are answering not for points, just to share the knowledge.
And I think the way of structure is wrong. i think we cannot pass two single values in your way. am not sure about .
low means it will accept single value. for one record in sign structure.
wait for other replys.

Field symbols values passing as parameter to Methods

Hi ,
Can we pass fields symbols as parameter to methods ? I want to use field symbols values in my where in clause in methods, thereafter I want to pass my internal table to calling method.
Thanks,
Ujjwal

Hi,
I have create an class in which have I have create a method to written a select query to extract value from a table. The table name is passed by user. the select used is:
select * from (tab) into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE data.
this method has 2 parameter:
tab of type sting (importing).
data of type ANY TABLE (exporting).
and i am using the following code to get the data:
data: itab TYPE TABLE OF t578w.
field-SYMBOLS <ab> TYPE any.
ASSIGN 'T578W' to <ab>.
CALL METHOD Z_GET_TABLE_DATA=>GET_TABLE " Z_GET_TABLE_DATA is the class name & GET_TABLE is method name

You can code in similar way.
I hope it helps.

InDesign CC: Text in editable text fields disappearing after exporting

Hi,
I'm having an issue of text disappearing from editable text fields after exporting the document as an interactive pdf. I've created the text that needs to be editable in acrobat with InDesign CC. So for example, I want to have an editable text field that already says "I'm Mary." I want users to have an ability to change "Mary" to "Tom" or "Ben" in Acrobat. So the pdf should have an editable text form saying "I'm Mary" sentence when users open the pdf in Acrobat. However, after exporting, the text fields remains but the text itself "I'm Mary." is gone. I don't understand why this happens because the text is there when previewed in SWF preview window in InDesign.
The below is the list of steps I took.
STEP 1: Create some texts (For example, m with the text frame tool in InDesign CC
STEP 2: Right click the frame, and click on "Interactive > Convert to Text Field"
OR
STEP 2: Select the text frame, open "Buttons and Forms" window and change the type as "Text Field"
STEP 3: Export the document as an interactive pdf. The setting is default.
Result: When I open the pdf in Acrobat, the text field is there, but it is blank.
Please help me to resolve this issue. I know this is possible because a person before me at my job did it.
Thank you!

As far as I know, to have a pre-populated text form [I'm Mary] appear in the text field, you will need to set the Default Value of the text field in Acrobat. You can do that by selecting the property of the field > Options > Default Value
