You only write in XMP. An "Exif.Photo.DateTimeOriginal" does not exist in XMP. In this case you also have to select [x] XMP in the Time Adjust Tool. Then "Xmp.exif.DateTimeOriginal" is written. Maik Ah, true. I missed that. Thanks for clarifying. But how come is actually changes when I do a "Item -> Write Metadata to File"? Maybe The updated original date is always transferred to the database by the Time Adjust Tool. The function write metadata to the file always writes all metadata, i.e. EXIF, IPTC and XMP. Maik Should not the update to the database (by the Time Adjust Tool) be reflected in the [left] Metadata sidebar? Sorry, not left sidebar. I meant the right metadata sidebar in the comment above. No, the metadata sidebar reflects the actual metadata in the image / sidecar. The date from the database can be found in the icon view below the thumbnail and is used for all DB queries. In principle it is the same as in the metadata. But a user who does not want to change his metadata has the option to change the date used in digiKam - until the next read of the metadata from the file. Maik Okay, got it! |
