Lossless rotations and mass rename suggestions
Posted: Thu Apr 29, 2004 9:09 am
Hello, just downloaded 1.68.1, it's great, I had an older version, especially like being able to change the toolbar options and looks, the speed, the stability, the very throrough personnalisation options.
I mainly use it to organise my pictures taken with my digital camera, and hence two options I really use are lossless rotation and mass rename.
So here are a few suggestions, maybe more users could react on them and see if they could be useful features ?
1) add a keyboard shortcut for lossless rotations (ctrl-J)
2) maybe possibility to read EXIF data for automatic lossless rotation (on Canon cameras, there is an EXIF info named "Orientation", I don't know if it's true for all cameras)
3) add more possibilities for mass rename, using EXIF data again : "Date taken" info could be inserted, on my opinion more useful than the %d %m %y options for current date, maybe they could refer to the date the picture was taken ?
Anyway, great job, and thanks for giving out freely such a powerful tool !
