Adding new image meta

18 Feb 2022, 13:39

Hello,

I am wondering how easy would it be to add new meta to pictures from a gallery, and choose to display them when user clicks on the image.
Example:
today we have "title", "description", what if I would like to specify "dimensions" and "type" (painting/photography) and then display that info to the user ?

Thank you.

Can't you just add this into the image description? For example:
Code
This is some description<br>
<br>
<strong>dimensions:</strong> 50 x 30 cm<br>
<strong>type:</strong> Acrylic
If we add more unknown generic inputs, X3 could at best just output them with no idea about how to style them or line-breaks. We already plan to support more ITPC fields and EXIF fields, and it's complicated enough to pre-format these fields.
