I'm trying to turn that off. I'm fairly new to digikam, so I don't know
all the features yet.
I have 4 still cameras in use at the moment; some set the exif data
correctly, some don't, some do it once in a while. We (the editors) use
a script that rotates and rescales the images using ImageMagick to
display on a website. We tell the script which way to rotate the image
so that it is displayed correctly in the browser. When the editors
look at the thumbnails in digikam, if the image is displayed as
portrait, we don't know which way to rotate it - right 90 deg or left 90
deg.
It's easier for us if *all* images were displayed as landscape in the
thumbnails so we can tell which way to rotate the image.
