Right now lossless rotation doesn't change the orientation setting in the EXIF which prevents images to show right in other programs which read EXIF. Hence my suggestion is to reset the orientation in the EXIF if the image was rotated. And even better would be to have an action just to change the orientation without making actual rotation. In that case all the programs will display the file correctly while it won't be altered physically. Changing the EXIF only might also be faster.
Thanks.

Sorry but lossless rotation reset EXIF orientation. Do you have the problem on all jpeg files?shkin wrote:Right now lossless rotation doesn't change the orientation setting in the EXIF which prevents images to show right in other programs which read EXIF.

Re: Lossless rotation and EXIF orientation
Actually, it ended up that the problem existed in one particular folder which somehow didn't want to work with Picasa after images were rotated in XnView. All images kept being rotated by 90 degrees. Removing/adding it back solved it just fine.xnview wrote:Sorry but lossless rotation reset EXIF orientation.

Sorry for bothering you.
