GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 412659
move a file when date is changed
Last modified: 2007-12-02 22:56:18 UTC
Please describe the problem: there's something wrong with my camera and it saves all pictures as taken on 1/1/2002. Since f-spot stores files based on their date, all the files I import in f-spot are saved to the wrong place (~/fotos/2002/2/2). I can change their date manually, but f-spot does not move the actual files when I do so so they remain in the wrong folder forever. Moreover, f-spot creates a 3-layered folder to save the files, so finding a specific file from a browser becomes a nightmare. Steps to reproduce: 1. take a picture with the wrong date. 2. import it in f-spot. 3. change the date from f-spot. Actual results: The picture remains saved in the wrong folder, ~/fotos/2002/2/2. Expected results: The picture should be saved to another folder, based on the proper date. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information:
I can confirm the bug. This happens every time and is very easy to reproduce.
