Hi, :D :D

I try to add a new toolbar to my "edit" menu on PainshopPro X5 but i cannot find it ?

This toolbar is in the "photo gestion" tab, but i want to add it on my "edit photo" tab !


A picture is worth a thousand words:

No answer from an X5 user yet so I'll try.
In X4 there is no file information palette like the other palettes in the Edit workspace. You already have the Information button on your top toolbar, the " i " on a blue background, just under the space between 'Selections' and 'Fenêtre' in the top menu.
Clicking on that with an image active will bring up an old-fashioned dialogue box with file info and image info. You have to close it again before you can do anything else.

There are tabs along the top of the Image Information dialog. There is a special one dedicated to EXIF information

It's the same in X5 as it was in previous versions.

Hi again Slash,

When you open the "i" dialogue there should be four Tabs along the top. Click on those.
1. 'Image Information' with file name, dimensions and memory usage.
2. 'Creator Information' which might be filled by the camera or you can fill yourself. I don't use it anyway.
3. 'Watermark Information' looks kind of official for registering copyrights or something.
4. 'EXIF information'. On the top of this one you have to click on the sections you want to see, or maybe unclick what you don't want to see. Things like aperture, shutter speed, ISO are under the 'Shot Conditions'.

Again, that's what I get in X4, so no guarantees for X5 but it shouldn't have changed much between versions. I know, I know, it's Corel so you never know :)

Ok Thank you, it's not as clear as the the "photo gestion" tab, but it will be ok


ps: it's strange to not be able to add the same panel in "photo gestion" / settings and edit tabs ....
