To edit exif data of files read-only  (r--r--r--), gwenview no warning, does not save changes
Comment 1 Aurelien Gateau 2009-01-19 12:12:34 UTC 
I am not sure about what you mean: the only Exif field Gwenview can adjust is "orientation", and I just checked it warns you when it can't save the image. Maybe you are using a KIPI plugin?
Comment 2 Antonio C. 2009-01-19 19:12:26 UTC 
Yes, it is true, I use plugins KIPI.

.>rpm -qa | grep kipi
  libkipi5-4.1.3-4.7
  libkipi6-4.1.96-63.1
  libkipi0-0.1.6-1.60
  kipi-plugins-0.1.5-65.13
  kde4-kipi-plugins-0.2beta6-11.12
.>

(Gwenview program)  Open the menu plugins => Images => Metada => Edit EXIF
Comment 3 Aurelien Gateau 2009-01-19 23:15:24 UTC 
OK, it's probably a problem in the KIPI plugin then.
Let's reassign it.
Comment 4 caulier.gilles 2009-01-29 13:44:29 UTC 
In  Metadata Edit kipi-plugin dialog, if file is read-only, all field are disable and annotation (READ ONLY) appears on the title of dialog. This is not enough ?

New Kipiplugins 4.11.0 is available :

Can you reproduce the problem with this release ?

Comment 7 caulier.gilles 2016-07-08 06:49:47 UTC 
Since the tool is moved to digiKam core with 5.0.0 release, this
problem is not reproducible.
