gflSetIPTCValue - repeatable tags

[kurka666]

Hi

I'm testing version 2.40 and see that there still are some problems with tags 27 and 118. This are repeatable tags, just like 25 (keywords), but when I add the second value with tag 27, the first value is overwritten, leaving only one tag value. The same goes for tag 118.

Example:
gflSetIPTCValue (iptc, 27, "value 1")
gflSetIPTCValue (iptc, 27, "value 2")

this will leave only one item with tag 27, and the value will be "value 2"

thanks

Currently i support only keywords or supplemental categories.
What is tag 27 & 118??

118 is officialy named "Contact". Commonly used to list persons in a picture
27 is "Content location name". I.e. the place where the image was shot.

You'll find a very good description of all IPTC fields at www.iptc.org (I don't have the complete link here now).

Both fields are quite important to me

thanks

hi again

Do you think you will add support for the tags mentioned? If not, I'll consider work-arounds...
