Comments: Descript.ion & Embedded

Post by Eyael_ »

Hello!
I've got a huge collection of pictures with long captions written in descript.ion files. I'm struggling to figure out which code to add in the settings to have those captions appearing in slideshows. I've tried both {comment] and {annotation} but none work. Could anyone help please? Thanks.

Works fine with tooltips and thumbnail labels but somehow won't work with slideshows. If I choose to show filename for example it does work but not annotation. Can't figure out what's wrong. I'm running on Linux Mint 18.1.

Oh, great! Thanks so much for being so prompt at fixing it. Just found out it is the same problem with View setting. The Annotation tag won't show anything but I imagine it must be the same as for slideshow.
