Description Philippe ROUBACH 2009-07-13 14:31:07 UTC

Version:           1.0.0-beta2 (using 4.2.96 (KDE 4.2.96 (KDE 4.3 RC2)), Mandriva Linux release 2010.0 (Cooker) for i586)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.30-desktop-2mnb

assume a photo with 3472x2604 top-left

i rotate the photo, result :

in digikam we see
- photo is well rotated
- in exif data  : 3472x2604 top-left

3472x2604 is false and must be replaced by 2604x3472

in file manager (konqueror, properties/metadata) we see
- photo is well rotated 
- in exif datat : 2604x3472 top-left

Comment 1 Philippe ROUBACH 2009-07-14 17:39:04 UTC

i don't know how konqueror see 2604x3472 after rotation

exiftool sees the contrary !

see the data extrated by exiftool :

................
Exif Image Width                : 3472
Exif Image Height               : 2604
..................

conclusion : when rotating a photo then exif dimensions are not changed !

Comment 5 caulier.gilles 2009-09-03 13:26:35 UTC

Try to use libkexiv2 from trunk (1.0.0), where Marcel has played with metadata rotation code...
