b1: set IPTC-date to EXIF-date for multiple pictures

[FlorianH]

1. select more than one picture in browser
2. press ctrl+i to edit IPTC data
3. change to tab date / time
4. use button >> to get context menu
5. and choose exif date taken/digitized

-> xnview crashes

i have the same bug. it works with one picture. but XnView crashes if more pictures selected

[xnview]

I confirm

[Dirk]

now xnview doesn't crash any more -

but one question (I'm not sure whether this is a bug or request):

If you choose "Write" - then only one picture will be modified.
If you choose "Write All" - then all picture will be modified and have the SAME date/time.
Maybe that's correct, but I think it should work like a batch job and each IPTC- data/time fields should get his own value from EXIF values.

Yes, currently this value is not taken from each file

okay pierre - then it's not a bug.
But the user handling is not very good for 100 and more pictures...

Crashing present in b1, fixed in b2.

As for how it should work I propose to split this thread and move request to New/Opened.

X.

OK, moved to "Closed..." (with shadow).

I can't split a single post and also this is not very clear...

Dirk, please start a new topic for this. Thanks.
