            Bug ID: 362441
           Summary: Use 4 digit year format instead of 2 digit year format
                    ( additionally add seconds )
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.14.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Metadata-Editor
          Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: richard.bos at xs4all.nl

Date modification using menu "captions/tags" from the right side bar
In this menu in tab "Description" there is the possibility to enter a date.
The date format is dd/mm/yy hh:mm

The date with the 2 digit format is sometimes changed from 1995 to 2095
unintentionally.
This happens when e.g. the date set incorrectly to e.g.

Assigned date: 01/07/1995, visible date 01/07/95

Assume 1 july ( 01/07 ) was wrong and should have been 14 july.  So change
01/07/95 to 14/07/95.  Looks OK, but at the same time the year was changed from
1995 to 2095!

This is not wanted!

Sect 2: please add seconds
To make it possible to have photos displayed in the chronological order make it
possible to add seconds in this time field.
I use the utility 'exiftool' to have seconds added to the EXIF field in the
photos.  It's a pity that it is not possible via this GUI date/time filed.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Digikam
2. Open a photo with the date set to 01/07/1995 ( 1 July )
3. Modify the day from 01 to e.g. 14 using the Date field in the
"captions/tags"  menu from the right side bar ( in the tab Description )

Sect 2: seconds
1. See the time field, it is not possible to enter seconds in the field

Actual Results:  
Not only the day is changed from 01 to 14, but the year is also changed from
1995 to 2095

Sect 2: seconds
1. It is not possible to enter seconds in the time field

Expected Results:  
The year information should remain unchanged.


Sect 2: seconds
1. It is now possible to enter seconds in the time field besides hours:minutes
( thus hh:mm:ss )
