Description jack 2008-03-24 15:54:12 UTC

Version:           0.9.3 (using 3.5.8, compiled sources)
Compiler:          Target: i586-mandriva-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.18.8.tex5

using digikam any attempt to rotate my .tif images simply results in a "failed to rotate" message in the dialogue box. This is the case either whilst viewing the full image in digikam in the right hand panel and using the shortcut keys, or whilst right clicking on an image listed in an album and choosing rotate.

The .tif images in question are from my minolta Dimage 7i, but others have confirmed to me that tif images made in the gimp are not rotatable either in digikam. Hence it seems a general bug and not one specific to the .tif images which are produced by my camera.

naturally I would expect the rotate function to work with tifs as it does with JPEGs. I'm using PCLinuxOS with the digikam rpm installed from our repositories.

I cannot confirm your report.

I have also a Minolta Dynax 5D here, and generating TIFF image using Minolta sotfware work very well.

Sound like something is wrong on your system.

Note digiKam use JPEGLossLess kipi-plugin to rotate image from album gui. This plugin use ImageMagick in background to process transformation with non jpeg image.

Strange, I could reproduce the problem (when discussin this issue with jack on the IRC) with a dummy tiff generated by gimp.
Anyone else who can reproduce the problem?

Jack,

This file still valid using kipi-plugins 0.1.6 and a recent version of ImageMagick?

SVN commit 929141 by cgilles:

"-verbose" option from imagegick convert option is broken with TIFF files. Sound dlike a bug in recent libtiff. 
This option is now removed everywhere.
