SUMMARY When highlighting EXIF items (e.g. GPS Latitude) the edit menu says that control C will copy the information, but nothing happens.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click on image, bring up metadata.
2. Click on metadata to copy
3. press control C (or use menu),

OBSERVED RESULT

 try to paste into Notepad and there is nothing


EXPECTED RESULT

That the relavent metadata text (as shown) is copied and available to paste

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I have two cameras, one with GPS co-ordinates captured in the metadata and another without. I am trying to update the images that do not have GPS co-ordinates to match those that do.

The ideal, would be a "feature" to "copy co-ordinates" as a matched pair of lat, long (ideally in decimal format as no one can find degrees symbols). I would then like to update a selection of images to have these co-ordinates, ideally with a "paste" of the co-ordinate pair. However, even if latitude and longitude could be copied from one image to another it would vastly help.

Another approach I tried was to set the location on one image and then to select a number and use the map location to fix the images. Unfortunately, having got one image with a pin, if I try to drag a (+) pin to the same location and then click to add, it then says "do I want to delete" the original, rather than adding the others.

Also, IT WOULD BE REALLY HELPFUL to be able to open up the map at a specific Lat, Long (or even search by place as per Picasa). Instead, to copy the exact location from one image to another using the map, I'm having to 1) use picasa on one photo and digkam on the other so I have two maps. Then use the aerial photo on picas and compare it with that on digikam, and then zoom in, and compare again and centre both maps, and then zoom in, etc until I eventually get to the same spot on both images. Fortunately, picasa and digikam use the same aerial map, otherwise I would often get completely lost.
