Photo on Mac - Problem creating an action to write metadata

[Fernando Ribeiro]

I'm trying to create an action to fill my copyright metadata on several images.
I record the action, filling the metadata fields, but when I run the action, nothing happens, no fields are filled with any info.
Trying this on Photo, on Mac, on the IPTC (image), IPTC (Contact), and Rights tab.

Strange enough, when I use the action on a batch job, the output images have the metadata inserted.

To recreate the problem:

1. create a new empty file
2. start recording an action and put some text on any field of IPTC or Rights tab
3. stop recording and save the action
4. create a new file and run the action

In my case nothing happens.

Does anyone have the same issue?

DId you refreshed the metadata panel afterwards?

I was typing my reply, which was similar to what v_kyr posted. You will not see that information until you refresh or after saving the file.

Thank you v_kyr for the video and Ron P. for the reply.

You're both correct. After saving the file, or switching between files, it shows up.
