| 51 | To update the value of a piece of metadata, first choose the file to which that
|
|---|
| 52 | value applies, and then the metadata element whose value you want to change.
|
|---|
| 53 | Your selection appears in the metadata edit controls. Edit the value field and
|
|---|
| 54 | click "Replace" to alter the metadata.
|
|---|
| 55 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 56 | The process is the same when updating a folder with child folders or multiple
|
|---|
| 57 | files, except that when you click "Replace" you are asked what to do with the
|
|---|
| 58 | other files. The buttons offer different options: "Replace" replaces any
|
|---|
| 59 | previous value with the new one; "Replace All" adds the new value in the same
|
|---|
| 60 | way to all other files; "Skip File" skips the current file and proceeds to the
|
|---|
| 61 | next; "Cancel" undoes any changes and cancels the action. You can only update
|
|---|
| 62 | metadata that is common to all files selected. For a folder, this means that
|
|---|
| 63 | all its contents must share the same metadata.
|
|---|
| 64 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 65 | The value tree shows all previous values, not just those currently assigned.
|
|---|
| 66 | Thus the value you have replaced will remain in the value tree.
