Why can't my editing program see the tags or reject labels I apply in Narrative?
Although Narrative’s tag and reject labels are written to metadata so your ratings are safe, no other programs can read them, including Lightroom. Only star and color ratings are universally accepted amongst image software.
Why can't I ‘Flag as Pick’ my images in Narrative?
Lightroom’s 'Flag as Pick' ratings are written directly to the Lightroom catalog and are never written as metadata. No software except certain Adobe apps can read and write these ratings.
How to get Narrative’s tags to work with my editing program
Method 1: Ship only your tagged images from Narrative to your editing program. Then, in your editing program select all the images and apply another rating, such as ‘Flag as pick’ (P), or 1 star to all of them.
Method 2: In Narrative, apply the ‘tagged’ filter. Now select all your images and apply a color or star rating – for example ‘p’ for purple. Your editing program will be able to read this.
Method 3: In future projects, consider switching to a star or color rating instead of using tag and reject. They function in exactly the same way, but your editing program is able to read them.
