Title: DateTime equalize bug?
Post by: kevinf on September 20, 2011, 01:29:02 AM
Hi there. I used version 4.20 today and found that the DateTime equalize function is creating backups of the originals (although I have not specified that I want these), and the DateTimeOriginal is not created at all. Rolling back to 4.19, all was well. I tried toggling the new setting "overwrite original in place" in the Preferences but there was no change to this behaviour.

My photos start with a ModifyDate only - I use the equalize function to create the "CreateDate" and "DateTimeOriginal". I am adding this EXIF data to scanned analogue photos.

Regards and thanks for an invaluable tool,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for reporting this bug (which was "created" when I made changes for v4.20).
I just posted fixed v4.21 for download.
