Re: How can you automatically rotate images according to the EXIF information?
Use Metadata->Lossless Transformations (JPEG)->Rotate based on EXIF Orientation Field
(Note: This will also reset the Orientation tag on the image, to avoid confusing image viewers. If you rotated the image without changing this field, you'd get double rotation when viewing the image in viewers that respect the tag)

Thank you very much!

So this is done automatically with EXIF-rotating. But under the EXIF rotation is an option to also do it in a single step separately?

Yes, in case you’ve modified the image through other means, or the flag is wrong.Elk wrote: Sun Jun 21, 2026 11:42 am Thank you very much!
