Description Paul Krause 2023-05-28 12:03:46 UTC 
SUMMARY
See title


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Settings -> Metadata -> Behavior -> Use lazy synchronization
2. Settings -> Metadata -> Behavior -> Write this information to the metadata -> Geolocation
3. Select at least one file / item / photo / video
4. Item -> Edit Geolocation
5. Drag & drop item onto map, alternatively paste coordinates via the context menu
6. Hit apply button


OBSERVED RESULT
The metadata is written immediately.


EXPECTED RESULT
Lazy synchronization, i.e., files are added to the metadata write queue.


Thanks!

The geolocation tool is also used by showFoto, but under digiKam it has a database interface. Since the geolocation metadata is covered by the database, I will see if we can implement it for this tool.
