export missing random data in exif columns

[GeoNomad]

An interesting find today.

I am using extra columns from exif data - Content Created, Latitude, Longitude

I wait while the display populates and confirm that all files show data for the 3 columns.

When I export to csv or efu, some lines are populated with the extra columns and other lines show nothing.

If I export again, different lines are missing the data. Some are OK that were missing before, and some are missing that were there before.

It is just like scrolling when the columns are briefly blank as the read catches up with the display, except this occurs after all the display columns are populated.

Code: Select all

Some sample examples of the data appearing sometimes and not other times in both efu and csv.

Running Version 1.5.0.1390a (x64) extracted just now from Everything-1.5.0.1391a.x64.zip (why the version difference?)

Just noticed the efu has junk in the Longitude column...

When I export to csv or efu, some lines are populated with the extra columns and other lines show nothing.

Everything only exports gathered information.

Please try sorting each column.

Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention.

Thank you! That nailed it. I wonder if that option shouldn't default to True. It seems easy to lose data when it appears to populate the field. It is not obvious that data is missing and I have used that before without noticing that it was probably missing data that it could have gathered. I found that although I had scrolled through the list and seen all the lat/lons filled, going through using PgDn showed a few missing still. Sort is a cool way to make sure.

Thank you for all the effort you put into this program year after year!

Previous versions were exporting with the wrong data type.
