Hyper-specific question: does anyone know of any Windows software that lets you have text/notes alongside an image?
I don't mean image captioning in the usual sense. When it comes to putting keywords/tags/captions in JPEG metadata, I know there're already lots of programs like that, including Windows Explorer.
I'm really envisioning something more like, in a hypothetical program, I would load up a folder, and can then view its images one-at-a-time on one side of the screen, maybe navigate through them with some arrow keys or something. Then on the other side, a space where I can write text that would be specific to that image. (I would imagine it would auto-save it as a text file in a specific folder, with the same name as the associated image file). Then anytime I load up that image in that program, I can see the associated text. I don't want the text to be embedded in the images at all, just seeing the text only through that program (or I suppose looking at them as text files if I navigate to that program's folder). The point is that the original image files would not be altered in any way, but I can have notes about them.
(I seem to recall, like over a decade ago, something like that actually existing, but I don't remember the name, and it's really hard to search for, since all I get are references to captions/tags in metadata.)
Does anything like that exist now?
