SUMMARY
***
When I want to move a bunch of selected pictures to a new album, I often used
the automatic date proposal.
(Oldest/Average/Newest). But recently It does not work as expected.
The suggest dates are not relevant to the "Photograph properties" of the group
of pictures I selected, but instead to the file creation date of the whole
surrounding Album.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0. From a Album where a lot of pictures reside, with many different dates.
1. Select the enclosed sample jpg picture, taken on 12th Feb 2020.
2. Right click "Move to"
3. Select "New Album"
4. Click Average
OBSERVED RESULT
on my computer, 1st July 2020 is proposed
EXPECTED RESULT
12th Feb 2020 , as this is the dates of the (only) selected picture (file and
photograph taken).
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I believe that there could be 2 reasons of this "issue".
* analyzed dates seems to be the full/original Album content from where the
selection was made. I would expect the analysis would better scope the selected
pictures. I almost consider this sicrepency as a bug.
* analyzed dates seems to be OS File creation dates, not the Photograph taken
dates (I would prefer that 2nd option ; this approach could be discussed, I
must admit).
