All my photography is in Canon raw and my editing is done through ufraw and GIMP. I want my image viewer to be exactly that, a viewer. I'm more than happy for geeqie to intelligently rotate the embedded JPEG before displaying it to me, but I don't want it modifying the Exif data and rotating the embedded image and thus confusing the rest of the workflow. To me, an image viewer should never modify the source unless I explicitly instruct it to do so. -- Jon Senior <j...@restlesslemon.co.uk> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
