Change timestamp function

[aries]

Hello,

a few notes on the "Change timestamp" function in the Tools menu.

1/ When I select several files, there are 2 buttons: "Write" and "Write to all files". What does "Write" do? Shouldn't it always be "Write to all files" since several files were selected? It is a bit confusing.

2/ If I select a folder and then "Write to all files", nothing happens and there is no recursivity in the sub-folders. It seems that this function only applies to a selection of files, not folders. It would be useful to have a "Apply to sub-folders" checkbox in order to manager directories with many sub-folders.

3/ The ? at the top right of the window seems inactive: when I click on it, a forbidden icon appears.

These remarks also apply to "Edit GPS data" in the Metadata menu.

Best regards,
Aries

Write the current file

yes currently, folder are skipped

Not active

Ok thanks.

As for 2/, the workaround is to select a folder with the left panel tab and then select files (recursive), then select all files and apply the Change timestamp.

But, I would like to suggest a recursive function directly in the Change timestamp function. It is more obvious there. Same for the change GPS coordinates function.
