[KPhotoAlbum] Arrange photos by creation date in KPhotoAlbum 4.1.1

[Jesper K. Pedersen]

Maybe the order in the thumbnail viewer got broken, try choosing all images, 
and choose "View->Sort selected by date and time", which will reorder them.

Cheers

| All your image dates will be updated."

| first" or "Show newest first", the photos are shown in some other order
| than the "Date Original" or "Date Digitized" in the EXIF information.
| 
| In this particular case, the camera used had an incorrect date (in 2008). 
| I used jhead to correct the date (to May 30, 2010), the new date shows in
| the EXIF data. However, they are still shown in 2008. If I look at them
| with a file browser, the date listed is in 2008.
| 
| Is there a new method to get the images shown in the the correct order,
| using the Capture/Original/Digitized date?
