Description Sébastien Lamy 2007-09-15 15:26:44 UTC
Version:           0.9.1 (using KDE 3.5.6, Kubuntu (feisty) 4:3.5.6-0ubuntu14.1)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.20-16-generic

When trying to adjust date and time from exif properties, nothings seems to change.

It seems to me that modified date, creation date, iptc date, and databas date/time (if there is one) should all be changed when choosing the menu
image->Adjuste date and time->Put exif datetime into file datetime
(Maybe the name arent exactly the sames for the menus, I am using the french version).

ie I have a photo, modification date is 15/09/2007
in exif information datetime creation (original) is 10/07/2007.
When choosing the menu, with this file, or with multiple file, nothings happens.

Still present in kipi-plugins-0.1.5rc1.
I only want to add to the previous description that instead of date from exif the current date is set.
Comment 3 Andrzej 2008-03-07 21:34:01 UTC
I discovered what are the problems:
1) files ownership:
I have my photos stored on FAT partition that is fully accessible by anyone but is owned by root. If I mount that partition as current user I can modify file using 
"Adjuste time and date"

but then another problem appears:

2) 
When I was using
"Set file date to EXIF/IPTC creation date" the date was changed into current one and not the one form EXIF. It was because options:
- Update EXIF creation date
- Update IPTC creation date
were marked.
Despite the fact that these options were inactive they had impact on how this plug-in was working.
When I unmarked these options "Set file date to EXIF/IPTC creation date" started to work as expected.
