SetEXIFData 10.1

 Permalink
setexifdata
A new version of SetEXIFData is now available:

v10.1
(29 March 2023)

For older version changes, look here

Note:
- Alas, version 10 is a paid upgrade, sorry. To purchase a new serial number for v10, simply click the button 'Buy with Paddle'.
- If you donated after October, 2022, you do not need to purchase a serial number; you will receive a new serial number for free in the coming days; if not, contact me.
- The trial limit of 5 photos or movies has been changed to 0. You can try the app, but it will not modify your image or movie files. You will need a serial number to enable that.
- When you have purchased a serial number, your number of activations is now limitied to 5 computers and checked over the internet. How many activations are left, can be seen in the 'About...'-window. Contact me if you need more activations.
New:
- You can use CMD-W to close a preview window.
- You can select and delete multiple rows from the list. Use SHIFT and/or COMMAND keys to select rows.
- To open a preview-window, you now have to double-click a line.
- To open multiple previews at once, select multiple lines and press COMMAND-O.
- Added Google JSON import for EXIF data. If you drag images exported from Google onto the window, the JSON file should exist in the same folder, as named by Google: '[image-name].jpg.json'. SetEXIFData will use 'description', 'photoTakenTime' and 'geoDataExif' from the JSON file.
- Added the use of 'libraw' as a 'dcraw' replacement. Install 'libraw' via 'homebrew' (https://brew.sh/): brew install libraw. Choose what runs on your system, SetEXIFData will look for 'libraw' tools first.
- Added the use of 'ffmpeg' for generating movie preview thumbnails. Install 'ffmpeg' via 'homebrew' (https://brew.sh/): brew install ffmpeg.
Improvement:
- Added 'x of y' files to the notifications.
- The file list scrolls up while processing, as visual feedback that the app is doing something.
- Updated the version-check to Xojo's latest URLConnection-class.
- Reading of files with special characters (/, ç, ü, etc.) is improved.
- Changed the text field into a listbox.
- Repositioned and changed the 'Presets' popup menus. They now leave the chosen or created preset visible as long as you don't change anything.
- The 'Elevation' is now saved in the 'Geotag preset' too.
- The Preview image now scales to the width of initial width of its canvas. It does not scale when resizing the window.
Fixes:
- To modify the Finder-dates, '/usr/bin/getfileinfo' is now used, when it is installed. If so, it should be kept up-to-date!
- When using 'Retrieve Date/Time from EXIF date', the application would crash on EXIF fields without a time, like 'DateCreated'.
- Reading / writing a file path containing double quotes with 'setfile' and 'getfileinfo' has been fixed.
- Duplicate paths (including the file name) are immediately removed from the file list.
- File names with multipe dots in their names, are processed correctly when used for 'Auto-fill'.
- Creating thumbnails from RAW images with spaces and special characters in their file names has been fixed.
- Adding/Subtracting from ContentCreateDate and CreationDate in movie files has been fixed.

 WDF/BA Updates:


- UI improvements for subfiles: title bar, field rows...

- UI improvements for list view: aligning buttons, background colors, ...


- Added VAT/ST-tiers to GP007, with 'Valid from'-date.

- Updated the countries table with regions and states, for example: 'US-AK' for Alaska, USA; 'CA-AB' for Alberta, Canada; 'IT-21' for Piemonte, Italy; etc.. Applications and database tables have been updated accordingly to accomodate for the longer country codes.


- You can now add translated country names in GP001. This will then show the country's name in the selected WDF/BA language.


- Searching in GP008 was standard with wildcards around the entered text. To speed up the search, this has been removed. If you want to search in 'contains'-mode, add a '%'-sign before the value you're searching for: '%nl'


- Stopped logging data that was never look at, and so save some disk space.


- In drop down menus with a search field, the search is now 'contains'-mode, instead of 'begins with'-mode.


- Loading text labels is faster. The underlying query to look for text in the current language has been improved.


- MD003 and its tables have been removed. An 10 year old idea, but never developed any further.


- Various code improvements and small bug fixes.

- Added a function 'mv_checkVATID', which checks a VAT-ID format and then at VIES.


- Added the hostname to the HEAD section of each app.

- Added Chamber of Commerce, Bank data and Payment Term to MD001, and removed it from MD000, where applicable.

 WDF/BA Updates:


- Created better webbrowser-tab-titles.


- New masks to display numbers and amounts.

- Added extra currency defaults: $s_CURRENCYxxxx.

- Removed the SDS82-only restriction on GP000/2/5/7, GP010, MD000/1/2/5/6/7.


- New: Introducing a licensing model. If you want to sell your WDF/BA product, in according with our policies, you can now use a license code for your customers. When the license expires, their WDF/BA implementation cannot be used anymore, until they renew via you. License keys are maintained in GP006 and the customer's implementation calls the license-API to check for a valid license.


- Changed the standard upcase function into a multi-byte capable upcase function. This ensures ü is upcased to Ü, ñ to Ñ, etc.. This is done only for customers running PHP v7 or higher.


- Introduced 'excluded keys' for GP006. For excluded keys, separate GP006-variants exist, especially tailored for a specific type of key. With excluded-keys, you cannot change the data of these keys via GP006.


- Corrected various Help-texts.


- Code improvements.
