Text Entries in LR3

[JohnKendrick]

I would like to include more notes on my photos in LR3 than the software provides space for. Why the shot was taken, my thoughts on processing, and so on.

I asked the same question about LR2 and thanks to a recommendations here, I used John Beardsworth's BeardyBigNote PlugIn. It did not, however, survive the move to LR3.

Does anyone know if there is another plug in that would do the trick. Or if Beardsworth (I believe that's his name) has an upgrade.

Thanks in advance for any help,

John Kendrick

Hi, John, I'm sure John Beardsworth will be along before long to give you the answer from the horses mouth!!:grin:

It's still available - see http://www.beardsworth.co.uk/lightroom/big-note/. But you should still have the plugin on your system and will simply need to install it again in LR3 through File > Plugin Manager.

Horse's mouth, if that's his name, hm.

Thanks for the reply, mouth or otherwise. I appreciate.

So I tried it, but LR 3 didn't like it. Got the following error message. An internal error has occurred: LrCatalog:findPhotosWithProperty: pluginId parameter is missing or is not a string

Any thoughts? LR3 itself? My setup? I'm running a MacPro with the latest version of Snow Leopard and the latest version of Lightroom.

Edit: P. S. whoops, sorry, error. I retried with the version I just redownloaded from your website. This one worked. My apologies for the mistake.

I would not worry John. Geoff could have confused you with the other end of the horse.

Oh thanks! LOL

Oh thanks! LOL

And I thought the English had a sense of humour - but then I turned on the news!!:mad2:

Seriously I do hope our community is safe up there, it is heartbreaking stuff, very Orwellian.

Having watched the very good movie Harry Brown and seen what has transpired over the last few dayz, I have a new appreciation for Harry.

I just discovered that this field is searchable!! Wow - in Library use backslash and search on Text/Any Searchable Field - enter the text you wrote and there's your photo . With my 800,000+ catalog and sagging memory, this is a godsend.
