Description S. Burmeister 2009-01-07 10:47:46 UTC

Version:           0.10 svn (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I'm not sure whether this is a bug or a feature. If I open a folder with RAW images in it, the thumbnails are not rotated, clicking on one, to get a preview, does not rotate it either. However editing it, does rotate it.

So, as the information on rotation seems to be available, why not use it for the thumbnails and the preview?

Are you set the right option in Metadata settings panel ?

Comment 2 S. Burmeister 2009-01-07 11:09:20 UTC

Yes, it is enabled. I thought it might have something to do with embedded JPGs used for the thumbnails/previews instead of the actual RAW picture.

Comment 3 caulier.gilles 2009-01-07 11:15:52 UTC

Which Raw file format exactly ?

Which Exiv2 library version you use ? Look in About/components Info dialog for details

Can you see any relevant messages in the console

Comment 4 S. Burmeister 2009-01-07 11:30:59 UTC

What should I look for in the output. All I get is digikam loading the plug-ins and the theme, after that nothing happens when changing a folder or clicking on an image.

Sorry, I forgot the RAW format. .rw2 from a Panasonic Lumix LX3

Comment 6 caulier.gilles 2009-01-07 11:35:50 UTC

Ok. You use Exiv2 0.16.

RW2 support have been just implemented in current code from svn.

Look how to checkout code here : http://www.exiv2.org

If you compile Exiv2 from svn, you need to checkout code and recompile libkexiv2 from trunk too

Works for the preview, i.e. when clicking on the picture, does not for the thumbnails, even after removing digikam4.db.
