Andrew Tunney Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Evening everyone, Is it possible to run a script or macro to extract from an image the camera & lens information for a photo, then place it on say the bottom right hand corner in Affinity Photo? Essentially, I'd like to have something similar to the following information taken from the metadata of an image: Canon EOS 750D, Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 Then be able to have it as moveable text that I can place on my images; there must be a way to extract this from the metadata via a macro or plugin somewhere, I just haven't been able to find it. If someone can point me in the right direction (if something like this exists), that would be appreciated. Regards, Andrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v_kyr Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Affinity Photo doesn't support or has build-in scripting capabilities. For Affinity internal Macros I'm not sure if it would record at all the copy/paste of shown up lens data in some sort of manner (never tried). What you can do alternatively is, to use other workarounds and tools independently of Affinity Photo for these tasks. For example with the help of ExifTool and ImagMagick etc. you can build your own custom batch processing scripts. There should be already a bunch of such other solutions, just do an internet search after such topics.
