gPhotoShow Products Support Forum

1) I am tagging all of my photos using the Tags Meta data, but am sad to see that the only tags supported are Subject, Rating and Keywords.

2) can we have filters as a selectable item directly from the tray icon?
its annoying having to open the app, click on Settings then Filters

3) When setting Filter rules Why is there no option to have the filter apply to all monitors, I keep having to duplicate my efforts for each screen i plug in

you should add a similar checkbox next to the monitor dropdown

Thank you very much for your feedback.

1) WallpaperSS uses the XMP/IPTC fields where keywords/tags are stored, Subject/Keywords. What other XMP fields would you like to use and how would you like to use them to filter images?

2) With the current version, this is obviously not possible. It would require a complete rewrite of the way filters work, providing a set of filters that can be changed on the fly, but this is not a planned change.
Currently, you can do something similar using groups. You can define groups using the WallpaperSS keywords found in the XMP/IPTC fields or in the file path. Groups can be changed on the fly from the context menu in the system tray.

3) Filters aren't designed to be changed often, so this option isn't present. I'll consider including it in a future update.

1) It seems tags are designed to allow multiple. Currently i have to duplicate my tags by pasting them onto the subject field.

2) Yes , quickly changing filters would be great because I change them quite often. As a matter of fact, It would be nice if we could save multiple filter profiles and switch between them.

You never replied as to why we cannot have filters automatically apply to all monitors, even newly connected ones.

I don't understand what you mean, WallpaperSldeshow gets keywords from the metadata field XMP dc:subject, this is the
metadata tag designed to store lists of keywords (tags) for describing image content.
You can specify more than one keyword, for example: Spain,Landscape

Ok, but this feature is not planned for now.

because that feature is not included in current release and is not planned. maybe for next major release but it's too early to say anything.
