Bug ID: 311005
Severity: normal
Version: 2.9.0
Priority: NOR
Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
Summary: "Edit all Metadata" allows to edit unchecked fields -
results in data loss
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter: schuschq at gmail.com
Hardware: openSUSE RPMs
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Component: libkipi
Product: digikam
In "Edit XMP" editing unchecked "[ ] Caption" field shouldn't be possible -
same with other fields like "[ ] Copyright"; editing without checking the box
results in unnoticed data loss;
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. mark at least one image in thumbnails window.
2. choose "Image > Metadata > Edit all Metadata ..."
3. choose "Edit XMP"
4. if the field "Caption" isn't checked (default here), you can nevertheless
edit the field ...
Actual Results:
you save the metadata and think everything is ok. Next time you open the file,
the metadata you added are not there ...
Expected Results:
one shouldn't be able to edit the field at all without checking the box!
this applies to more fields (at least "Copyright" on the same page)
it caused me several time to loose work of at least an hour together
