Description Patricia 2008-06-01 00:13:12 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

I travel with my ASUS eeePC
and use Photo Manager to organise my images.
I add comments -
but when I import the images to Photoshop Lightroom 
I can no longer view the comment !
I wish that the EXIF comment in jpeg images (edited in Gwenview / Photo Manager on my ASUS EEE PC) could be read by Adoobe Photoshop Lightroom and seen in the Title field.

Thanks,

Patricia@riviera.net

Gwenview 1.4 does not edit EXIF comments, but JPEG comments (A JPEG file does not always have an EXIF block, but it can always carry a JPEG comment). You may want to check whether Lightroom has a way to import the JPEG comment rather than the EXIF one.

Gwenview 1.4.x is no longer maintained, so I have to close this bug as a wontfix, sorry.

BTW, you can try using kipi-plugins e.g. the metadata edit one to edit exif comment
IIRC it should work.
