Note: Before defining your Lightroom
Metadata Preset Details, make sure you’ve created one or more preset
names in Maintenance > Digital >
Lightroom Metadata Presets.

Defining the preset details is basically setting up a table of rules that let Spectra/Stratus Desktop know what a Lightroom rating, color label, or keyword
should “equal” in Spectra/Stratus. Examples include:

• An image with a rating
  of no stars in Lightroom should be marked as “Not Selected”
  in Spectra/Stratus.

• An image with a four
  star rating in Lightroom should be marked as “Selected”
  in Spectra/Stratus.

• An image with a red
  color label in Lightroom should be put in an image group called “Outdoor.”

• An image with a yellow
  color label in Lightroom should be put in an image group called “Special
  Effects.”

• and so on…

When you’re ready to define the preset details, open Maintenance
> Digital > Lightroom Metadata Preset Details.

• Select a Lightroom
  Metadata Preset from the drop-down list.

• To add a detail line, click once in the blank
  row or click New on the ribbon.

•  In the first column, select a Metadata
  Type. These are items that have been assigned in Lightroom,
  including Color Label, Image Rating, and Keyword.

• In the second column, enter or type the Lightroom
  selection that you will be defining for Spectra/Stratus. Note:
  When typing in color labels or keywords, make sure to type it in exactly
  as it appears in Lightroom, including capitalization.

• In the third column, select whether metadata of
  this type will translate to a Selection
  or an Image Group in Spectra/Stratus.

• Finally, in the fourth column, enter or select
  the specific selection rating or image group.
