To put it another way. If I right click on an image in Gwenview I get a menu. That menu includes "External tools." There is an item there, "Configure External Tools." It lets you call any program you have on your computer. I can configure it to call Word 5.5 running in a DOS emulator! And, if there were a way to call the metadata editor from there, job done. Ah, but . . . I have no idea what Gwenview is doing, up there deep in the bowels of the Plugins menu, to cause the metadata editor, a/k/a /opt/trinity/share/services/kipiplugin_metadataedit.desktop , to appear. Byut there is surely something that Gwenview does to call it, and if I knew what that was I could use it as the command argument to call the thing from the menu generated by the RMB on the image I intend to improve. So: Does anyone know what Gwenview does to get kipiplugin_metadataedit to run? -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/ ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
