Functions in Info display

Post by trevzilla »

If you go to tools->Settings, and click on "View" then the "Info" tab, there is a box for information displayed, which seems highly customizable.

I'm curious if there is a way to input mathematical equations into this box so that I can display on the fulscreen image a calculation that is based on the EXIF data.

(For example...I take a picture of a wall 80 meters away. I'm using a 600mm lens which has a fixed field of view. Using the focus point from the exif data, and the field of view, I can calculate how many meters of the wall I am photographing.)

Another example...is there a way I can just put 5*2 in there, and have it display "10" in the info display, instead of having it display "5*2"?

I understand that this is probably not a possibility, but I thought I'd ask, and it'd be really cool if it was!
