Description Alexis Horner 2022-06-27 19:25:45 UTC

SUMMARY
When saving an image that contains metadata, the metadata shown inside the Image Information dialog does not get refreshed. This can be observed when resizing an image, since 'Exif.Photo.PixelXDimension' gets modified, but the displayed value is not refreshed on save.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open an image that has the 'Exif.Photo.PixelXDimension' attribute
2. Click on 'Show more details...' inside the information panel to display the image metadata
3. Change the width of the image by cropping it
4. Save the image
5. Notice that the 'Exif.Photo.PixelXDimension' is still the same, even when reopening the Image Information dialog
6. Reopen the image
7. Notice that the metadata is now properly updated

OBSERVED RESULT
The image information dialog shows the metadata of the original image.

EXPECTED RESULT
The image information dialog should show the metadata of the new image. This behavior can be observed if we reopen the new image.
