Label Compatibility

Use the Label Compatibility pull-down menu if you use another digital asset management software application to tag and sort your images. Capture NX 2 supports a number of digital asset management software applications. If you select the appropriate option from the pull-down menu, Capture NX 2 will be able to read the label and rating information added by that application.

Each option controls the maximum and default number of labels available, along with their color and label name.

The Default Settings option shows all nine labels, however you may choose to display fewer than nine labels.

The Custom option lets you determine not only the number of labels available, but also the names for each label to be used.

For example, if you use only one label to determine those images to keep, use the Custom option to select only one label and name that label accordingly.

Alternatively, if you prefer to create a variety of labels based on different types of images, use the Custom option to select the number of labels you wish to use and then name each label accordingly.

A Please note: Changing the label names can reduce compatibility with other applications, including ViewNX.
