Notes 

File info panel

&
Bridge palette 

Move DC Title to the Summary so that it can be more easily used for the image title. That also brings the key information from IPTC core together, for any one who uses IPTC Core for preliminary cataloging. For example, several programs allow the addition of IPTC core metadata when importing images from a camera. 6/27/2011    Make dc:title concatenate VRA Work and Image Titles 

File info panel

&
Bridge palette

Add a display field for Location Shown to the image record. Suggestions are the IPTC Core location set, for the sake of interoperability with many photo apps, or VRA Core 4 Subject Geographic Location. 6/27/2011     

File info panel

&
Bridge palette

Add a field for Genre/Format headings. That could be VRA Core 4 Image / Work Type 6/27/2011     

Export-Import Script Export IPTC Core along with the fields on the VRA panel.  We wouldn't have to add as many IPTC fields to the panel. We can use VRA fields on the panel in cases where IPTC would be a force fit. People using the VRA panel could still export any IPTC Core fields they use. 8/11/2011    
File info panel 
Include IPTC Core in its own tab so that people can use IPTC to supplement the VRA panel. 8/11/2011

Bridge palette

Add VRA image date (display) to accommodate circa dates, date ranges, or qualifications to the image date. 8/11/2011    

File info panel

&
Bridge palette

Add VRA Image Description.  IPTC Description (DC Description) is being used in the Summary. Alternatively, move the Summary to be directly under the Image record so that the Summary fields can be used to extend the image record. 8/11/2011     

File info panel

&
Bridge palette


Add VRA Image Subject. The IPTC Keyword (DC Subject) uses both commas and semicolons as delimiters. LoC subjects often include commas, making the Keyword field hard to use. Quotes preserve the commas as punctuation in CS4 and CS5, but are not an ideal solution. Alternatively, move the Summary to be directly under the Image record so that the Summary fields can be used to extend the image record. And continue to live with the delimiter problem. 12/15/2012

Bridge palette

Remove all fields, such as dc:subject, that is part of the IPTC palette because they do not write new data correctly and cause an error when creating templates 08/27/2013

Work Inscription

a field for inscriptions either on e.g. the back, bottom or the sides of the work, or inscriptions on housing materials e.g. envelopes or boxes, could be of general use.

Work Preservation info

General or detailed? Conservators would probably like to have a whole set (a panel) of even more specific fields for describing conservation related issues and they would probably also need to describe the image of the work in much more detail.

Image Quality

a field for describing the image quality of the reproduction is probably not something people would generally find useful. But it would still be great if you could insert links in the custom fields in VRA.

09/01/2013     

File info panel

Allow for synchronization between VRA and IPTC/XMP DC fields, if people want to make the metadata visible through common applications, maybe especially between VRA and IPTC Description. And you could maybe also consider to allow for synchronization from VRA Creator and Date (work) to IPTC Description as you have implemented in the KBDC panel... But it's really difficult to know if it would be a good idea, especially given the many different ways that you have shown that tools implement these field and add labels, it may not be that beneficial after all... 09/01/2013
