<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I think Per has a valid point. In the
current UI we have a dire warning when annotating multiple images
in one go - also not really nice.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">If "append to" would be the default, we
would not need this warning.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">2 Checkboxes above the textbox (only
when crtl-2 was used) would not be too intrusive: <br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">[x] append to existing descriptions [
] overwrite all selected descriptions <br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">The append option should append " " +
<new text> in case there is some older text and without the
blank when the description is empty.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">This would work nicely for the normal
case (previous desc. are empty) and we even would have the option
to clear some default texts (overwrite with empty).</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I do not know whether the list accepts
image attachments. Thus the textual description. Otherwise: 1
image = 1000 words (2 images = 1001 words :-)</div>

If the following doesn't exist:
It would be really nice to be able to add text to the "Description" in
multiple images without changing existing text. This need arises when you
suddenly realize a connection between images.
An example: you've annotated several images when you finally find the
coordinates to the place where the images were taken. Sometimes this can be
hard to find but after many tries you succeed and now you want to add them
to the text. In my case, these are old black and white images scanned, so
no exif info exists. (Also you are much too lazy to try to enter this in
the exinfo for the scanned image, losing your workflow in KPA. :)

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Well, you can edit the description field for multiple images (via the Annotate
multiple images dialog), but that will overwrite any existing text for these
images.
I'm afraid I don't know how this feature could be implemented right now
without making the user interface worse.
Cheers,
Johannes
