According to one of your previous comments, you use Menu>Select/Batch/Title-Description (so: Preferences - Grid/Filmstrip - Single keys work for multiple files... is NOT checked).
With this setting (separate keys/menu items was introduced in FRV 1.3).
- Menu - XMP Metadata - Edit Title/Description
- and/or click to XMP Metadata panel
Will work with file currently being displayed (Single View mode)/highlighted (Grid display)
Select/Batch - Batch set Titile/Description should work with selected files:
- if single file has selected, this will not display checkboxes for Set Title/Set Description
- for multiple files: checkboxes will appear.
If 'Single file keys work for multiple files' IS CHECKED (default mode for FRV 1.4/1.5):
- Menu - Select/Batch is renamed to Menu/Select, any adjustment actions are removed from this menu
- Menu - XMP Metadata keys (and all buttons) will work with single/multiple file(s) depending on context:
- in Grid display mode: act on Multiple files if current file is part of selection (there is additional tune for that)
- in Single File View mode: will act on current file always.
Context (right click) menus on thumbnails
- if clicked on selected (checkmarked) thumbnail in Grid or Filmstrip: will act on selected files
- if clicked on not-checkmarked file thumbnail: will act on this single file
- if clicked on big display in main window: will act on this single file.
I've rechecked Title/Description edits on 1507 build (MacOS 10.9, this should not vary with macOS version) and this works according to description above.
Generally, FRV 1.4/1.5 mode (Single file keys works with multiple files too: checked) is more-or-less similar to Lightroom and other tools behavour: batch in grid view, batch/single depending on context in context menus, single file in 'Single file view'
