Indeed, I didn’t know about that option that is not active by default. With it, the files now have the full detail. I still think that it’s very strange that the data was correct in the metadata panel but not in the main view. Something to reconsider probably. Indeed, when I asked digiKam to refresh, I right clicked on the file folder and selected the refresh option. The nuance with the Reread option was too subtle. For clarity, maybe call that option Scan for new files? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
