Free SetTag Prep app + clear set confirmation
New: SetTag Prep, a free standalone app to prep shoots, sets, QR cards and the product catalogue in advance, no license needed. It works off the same data as SetTag itself, so anything prepped beforehand is already there at the shoot. On top of that, SetTag now clearly confirms on screen and with a sound which set just became active, for every way of activating one (scanner, manual entry, or automatically from the photo).
SetTag now speaks English too
The app now automatically follows your Mac's system language: set it to English and SetTag shows itself in English, including error messages and the log. Dutch remains the default. On top of that, the full manual is now also laid out on the website, in both languages.
Also works without an internet connection on location
SetTag checks your license locally against a cache instead of online every time. As long as you've had a connection somewhere in the past 7 days, tagging keeps working without wifi or 4G. Only after 7 days offline in a row does tagging lock, until the license can revalidate again.
Shoot name was missing from RAW file metadata
The shoot name was silently not being written to XMP because a non-existent tag field was used. exiftool only raised a warning, not an error, so this went unnoticed. The correct field is now used, so the shoot name is included in the metadata.
Add a client to the catalogue
You could only select a client in the product catalogue if a shoot already existed for them. Now you can add (and remove) a new client directly in the catalogue itself, without first having to create a shoot.
Product catalogue per client
The catalogue can now be filtered per client, so choosing a product no longer means scrolling through someone else's products. Products without a client stay visible to everyone (General).
Sets counter and ordering fixed
The counter at the top didn't account for deleted sets, deleting a set with tagged photos now correctly updates the count again. New sets now appear at the top of the list instead of the bottom.
Optionally discard the QR card after scanning
New checkbox under Watch Folder: automatically move the photographed QR set card to the Trash after recognition, instead of it staying in the set as a regular photo. Off by default, the card is kept unless you turn it on yourself.
Tag counter recovers after restart
The counter at the top showed 0 after a restart, even if photos had already been tagged for that shoot. It now automatically picks up the real total again.
Photos upright, watch folder remembered
Portrait photos would sometimes show sideways in the thumbnails due to an EXIF orientation issue, that's fixed now. The watch folder is now remembered per shoot and returns automatically after a restart.
Menu bar fix and partial demo
SetTag now opens a window by itself on launch instead of staying hidden behind the menu bar icon. Without a license you can explore the whole app, only tagging stays locked until activation.
First release
Automatic tagging during tethered shoots, scanning sets via USB scanner, manual entry or a photographed QR card, watch folder, product catalogue, CSV/JSON export, a license system and a built-in manual.
