type="cite">Hi!<br>
<br>
I have a question about digikam and xmp sidecars files usage.<br>
<br>
In the options, i've chose "read metadata from xmp sidecars" and
"write to XMP sidecar only".<br>
In the metadata sidebar, I now have only the metadata I've
modified (including for files newly imported with Digikam
importer).<br>
<br>
<br>
My questions:<br>
- Is this behavior normal?<br>
- Is there a way to update XMP sidecar files, from the image
metadata ? for the selected image(s) and/or for the whole
database?<br>
- is there a way to copy the metadata from XMP sidecar to image
file, for example to give pictures to a friend? (Is that what
"Image > write metadata to image" does? Or does it write
metadata in the medium chosen in the options (in my case, only XMP
sidecar) ?)<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help, I confess I'm a bit confused.<br>

Sorry Olivier, I think we all are. The sidecar functions not always
as expected. I think it is still under construction.<br>

By the way, I use Digikam 2.1.1<br>
