No menu entry to edit metadata

[Andrey Goreev]

I am not sure but maybe the packager compiled digiKam without that function...
You can try downloading an appimage from digikam.org I have been using pre-release 5.7.0 for a while now. It is rock solid.

    Ctrl + M hides Menu bar, with Shift it does nothing.
    I'll take a look at an exiftool, but it's still strange i don't
      have the menu entry.
    Thanks

      Try either Ctrl + Shift + M or Ctrl + M.
      

      
      Also I think you better figure out an exiftool command to get
        rid of unwanted metadata. Digikam's abilities for that will be
        limited.

      Hi there,

      

      i have uploaded a hundred photos on a site which has set tons of
      shitty 

      metadata in my photos. I'd like to remove it, now i auto-host
      these.

      

      Everyone says to go to the menu « Image -> Edit -> Metadata
      », but that 

      very menu doesn't exist on my soft. I do have « Write Metadata in
      image 

      » and « Read again metadata from the image » (real-time
      translation from 

      my french interface, sorry), but both do nothing.

      

      I'm running Digikam 4.12 on Mint (yeah, i like when dependencies
      hurt).

      

      Thanks for tips
