misleading file synchronization tooltip

Hello Gilles,


Please see attached screenshot for details.

In Digikam 5.3.x, there does not seem to be a straight way to instruct the software to write queued/pending metadata to files. To the best of my knowledge, the queue gets written only during digikam shutdown.

So there are 2 problems.

1. The tooltip is misleading. because if I click, it reloads metadata, rather than writing it.

2. There is no interface in the digikam menu to trigger the write(), other than quitting digikam

I see no problem here. The pending metadata can be written with the button to the files, without to finish digiKam. The metadata is not reloaded with this button.

I am not able to reproduce this bug.

I am disappointed in this bug report because it looks like I hurried upon. Neither the bug report has clear steps to reproduce, nor have I been able to reproduce it again, which may imply I did not double check.

Sorry for the noise.

Not reproducible with 6.0.0
