The creation of the file is more recent than it's modification. (60.43 KB, image/png)

The creation of the file is more recent than it's modification.

In this situation, shouldn't the date of creation be at least the same as the date of modification?

I expect dolphin is just reporting what's recorded in the underlying file system.  Entering the following command in a terminal shows the file system creation date/time followed by the modification date/time:

stat -c '%w %y' filename

On my system it isn't difficult to find files where the creation timestamp is after the modification timestamp.

Please reopen this bug if Dolphin's shows properties that differ from the file system.
