Description Pascal Niklaus 2015-07-13 18:47:09 UTC 
Files copied from the camera are display/scaled wrongly.

Files in "portrait" orientation do not fill the screen vertically, even if "fit" is choosen. On rotating by 90 degrees, they get "larger", i.e. they fill the screen vertically. However, although the displayed image looks fine, rotation is somewhat the "wrong way round". When re-opening, a photo that is in correct orientation is upside down.

I don't know the source of the error, but it looks to me like the EXIF rotation information is processed wrongly/twice (and maybe wrongly).




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Import photo in "portrait" orientation (photo does not use available space, despite "fit" option)
2. rotate by 90 degrees left or right
3. save, close gwenview
4. re-open with gwenview or other editor

Actual Results:  
1.  portrait photo does not use screen space
2.  Rotation is in wrong direction (in file), and does not correspond to displayed photo
