Hi, I have the traditional view set up a gallery and the filenames turned off. My screen looks like below with part of the file name displayed, and on some of the images...how to fix this? Thanks, Shane

    looks like the filenames got imported in as captions. go to the edit captions/keywords (bulk) under the photo tools and remove all the captions.

    Huh, I'll try it...but it begs the question, what happened? And why on some photos and not others? I've been using SM in the same way for many months now and have never had this problem before, and my post processing is the same. Hopefully this is a blip at I don't want to have this extra step everytime I upload. Thanks for your note, Shane

    Do you have this button set to NO?

    Yes. I did go through and delete the captions on each affected photo, that worked but was a pain and has never been required before. I guess the question is how did the caption field for some of the photos get this data? It was not on all photos, just about half.

    Post processing routine please? Exact steps, thanks...

    i know this doesnt get to the root of your complaint, but using the tools at the top of the edit page, you could have bulk deleted all captions.

    Shoot RAW
    Quick delete of obviously bad shots with BBPro
    DDP, WB adjust if needed, convert to tiff
    CS2 for crops, any curves or levels, USM
    Jpeg convert with BBPro

    Same process for over a year.

    Andy, I'm not with my photos now but I may have the answer...how is IPTC data treated by SM?
