XnView Software

Windows 11 / XnView MP 1.8.3

I set in settings not coping XMP and EXIF file.
Save As to Webp format respect these settings. Export don't do it and saving X/E data.
Save As and Export to JPG(LI) don't respect these and always saving X/E data.

I can't reproduce that 'Save as' JPEG-li always keep XMP metadatas.

Export dialog doesnt use Settings>Write, you have 'keep all metadata' in jpeg tab but perhaps it will be better to have it for all formats?
'Keep metadata' doesnt work when exporting in jpeg-li

probably its better to either:

• use Metadata settings from Settings>Write
  
  OR

• add Metadata group to Export dialog

I'm sorry, my mistake. I did many different tests and, as you can see, something was going mishmash.

I like @user0 idea to add Metadata group to Export dialog.

See issue for current status and some details.

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 1.8.6. Please check and confirm the bug fix here.

Work OK. Now Export to WebP clear XMP/EXIF or save it when I set in right panel OFF/ON these options.
