Hi! I just bought ACDsee Photo Studio v4 for Mac. Looks good. (Main purpose, use it as a DAM.)
First question:
It seems easy to set/change tags, rating etc, but they are only stored in the database, not in the image files themselves or XMP sidecars?
(Is this changeable? Feels safe to have it stored in/by each image.)
Second question:
Since the database is important, where is it located (for automated backup),
And related to this (and maybe most important):
If a mount point/directory is renamed (by OS/app or server changes, OS reinstall etc), can I somehow update database accordingly? (So that I don't risk loosing tags etc.)
+ Can I manually trim/modify the DB, remove obsolete entries etc?
