Not all pages rotated from multi-page TIFF images

[wmdmer]

Hello!

I have the issue with the last ver (for now it's 2.34). When trying to rotate all pages from the multi-pages TIFF only the last observed page is rotating.
I haven't success to find any setting for this in preferences.

Am I doing something wrong or observing a bug? Or maybe it's a feature?

If you are rotating the pages (or performing any other editing) by stepping through the pages, you need to resave the file every time a page in the file is changed otherwise the changes will be lost... If the file has a large number of pages resaving each time could become very slow.

Or are you rotating the pages in the file using a batch operation, if that is possible?

Edit:

In a quick test, the pages of a multi-page TIFF were rotated correctly using a batch operation... [Using XnConvert for my test].

Oh yea.. if there are 20+ pages am i need to resave the image after I step each page?

It's uncomfortably, because for example if I step to another file I got the message: "The document was changed - save it?" - well I press yes, but only the last observed and rotated page would be rotated. And I can choose "do not ask me" - thus XnView will save only the last rotating.
While stepping pages inside the file regardless of rotating any page this message never appear. So i suppose rotaing the single page shoud be significant edition for this message, which I can follow the setting YES and "do not ask again"

I suppose I could step pages inside one TIFF, rotate single (or maybe all) page, and the changes should be automatically written do disk.

Or are you rotating the pages in the file using a batch operation, if that is possible?

No, batch operation is not helpful if I have the scanned document 20+ pages where some pages I need to rotate 90° left, some 90° right, some 180°.. This operation always handy.

That seems a valid comment, could you post that separately as a suggestion so that Pierre can consider it?

When I looked at a similar situation five years ago -- stepping through the pages of files containing around 100 pages to make selective edits -- I decided the best way was to extract the images from each file to a folder, step through the images in the folder quickly making any required edits and resaving any page that was edited, and then creat a new multi-page files from the final folders of images.

Overall that seemed the best way for processing a large number of multi-page scans, and there was a possibility to use NConvert scripts to automate some of the operations such as extracting the images in each multi-page to a folder, and creating the new multi-page file from each folder of images.

Ok, I got your point:
