Edit Metadata in Affinity Photo

[DavidD]

I would find it extremely useful to be able to edit the metadata in my photos in Affinity Photo.

Primarily I would like to be able to add copyright information to my images.

I find that Adobe (pax) Bridge, which is now free, does all the metadata editing that I need. You can set up templates to include your copyright information.

At the risk of seeming silly, I have done another way of adding Metadata within Affinity Photo. File Open in Affinity photo goes into Windows File explorer. Right click on thumbnail for the image and then down to the bottom to Properties. This open the properties dialogue. Then click Details tab.

There should be listed the metadata for the image file. Some sections can be written into  such as author, copyright, lens type etc. Then click apply.

Open the image into Affinity Photo and the additional added information is displayed in Affinity Photo Exif.

Windows 10, Affinity 1.6.4.104.

Not silly at all. It is an excellent suggestion. Why didn't I think of that. I have used this method for individual files, though I use Bridge for editing lots of files at once (when I import them).
