  2. I want to increase the character limit in my photo text boxes

    Yes. Currently the caption box for my photos is limited to 100 characters. I want to increase this to about 250 characters.

    Can you please provide a screen shot?

    We may have the wrong idea about what you mean by "caption box". Maybe you mean the file name, or maybe you are referring to the display in your photo viewer or photo editor.

    If you really do mean the file name, I'd warn against making extra long file names. That's just going to lead to problems in the future when the files are moved further down into subfolders, copied to a different file system, etc.

    It's better to put a long description in the photo's info area (aka "meta data"). For example, here I've added a description using Windows built-in photo viewer:

    I want to increase the character limit in my photo text boxes

    My photo text boxes in some folders are limiting me to 100 characters, but I need to increase this to about least 250. There must be a simple solution, but I can't find it and online 'helps' don't help.
