RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy and pictures - 2 other questions

Hi Cary,
You can't add more than one picture at a time - but the process is 
much speedier in the Picture Centre rather than the Individual Picture Gallery.


You can't get the Title from the filename.

In the past I've had a pop up with some photos - usually photos I've 
been sent by others I think - asking whether I want to transfer some 
embedded comment to the Caption or Description. Since this has 
usually been something irrelevant - like the make of the camera or 
something, I've always said no. It may have been the JPG comment? I 
can't see anything in the Help about this and it doesn't seem to be 
popping up trialling a photo with JPG comment added.


When I have an embedded comment, I use IPTC captions so this isn't 
much use to me.


Cheers,
Cathy

not work.  I don't find anything on this in the Help.

Second, is there a way to get the picture name to appear as the Title
without retyping it?  For example, if I load "John Smith.jpg" can I tell
the Title to be "John Smith" in some easy way?  I've loaded boatloads of
pictures, and at first I wasn't putting in titles (dumb, I know), but they
look nicer in reports with titles and now it's a huge job to add them.
