Daminion 0.9.9b. Assets can be Annotated Faster

Daminion 0.9.9 – minor update now available to download.

With the new version of Daminion you can classify your image archive library even faster, thanks to improved file/folder management, tag
presets, and many other improvements.

Improved File/Folder management

• It’s now possible to remove folders from the catalog
• Added support for drag-and-drop reordering of folder structure in the tags tree. You can now create subfolders by simply dragging and dropping one folder into another.
• Re-location of media items. If you’ve renamed or moved a file outside Daminion you can re-link the file’s new location back to Daminion. To access this option go to the “Item > Actions > Relink Item…” menu.

Assets can be annotated faster

• Added option to Copy/Paste Tags. You can now copy and paste annotations from one item to another
• Tag presets can now be assigned “on-the-fly” to importing files, i.e. during import.
• The newly added “Tag Presets” allow you to define tag presets and assign them to files.
