           Summary: Digikam doesn't save metadata to images
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.2.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: libkexiv2
          Assignee: [hidden email]

Settings for saving metadata

So far, I saved metadata into images'exif data.
But it seems not to work anymore
(However GPS coordinates are correctly saved using Geo-location tool).

Example
I write "Cat on the table" in the "Title" field.
To be sure the title is writen in the image, I click on "Image->Write metadata
to Image"
If I run "exiftool image.jpg -Title", nothing is printed (although a few days
before, it worked)

I tried to apply the same workflow in Fedora and I have the same results.

Rolling back to digikam 3.5.0 solves the problem.

What's about to try digiKam 4.1.0 to see if error have been introduced to 4.2.0
?

Note : this is not reproducible here...

Q: which kind of information did you expect to found in metadata ?

I built digikam 4.1.0 and 4.2.0 from sources, downloaded from digikam's
website.

In digikam 4.1.0, metadata are written to image as expected. but not in 4.2.0.

Well, here with current implementation from git/master both XMP and EXIF store
title and comment as expected...

Can you checkout code from git/master and try with this version of digiKam
(next 4.3.0) ?

Writing capton and title to image only works if "Image tags" is checked in the
"Behavior" tab !
