Many of my thumbnails have the "metadata changed message" even though these images have never been opened in any program other than LR. I have read that a way to eliminate this is to check off the "Automatically write changes to XMP" box in the catalog settings menu. Will doing this have any unintended side effects? I do most of my editing in LR, using CS4 for soft proofing and the occasional tweak that LR doesn't handle.
Sorry the attachment is so small but clicking on it makes the image larger.
Thanks.
