Character encoding of this file: UTF-8 Changelog JPhotoTagger https://www.elmar-baumann.de/JPhotoTagger/ ================================================================= 1.1.7 2023-11-28 ---------------- * Fixed: Context menu action "Display imageas: Keyword only" of the Keywords in the right window could display incorrect images. * The keywords in the keywords list having a padding right to avoid that keywords gluing together. * Changed the description of DcSubjects to "Keywords" (Plural instead singular). 1.1.6 2023-09-23 ---------------- * Corrected spelling errors in an Englisch message. * Progress bar has minimum size. 1.1.5 2023-09-12 ---------------- * Fixed date picker in the search dialog for building simple SQL queries: The selected month will be applied, not one month earlier. 1.1.4 2023-03-16 ---------------- * Errors when reading GPS coordinates from the EXIF data does not result in reject reading EXIF data in general. 1.1.3 2022-10-07 ---------------- * Fixed missing progress bar update when importing keyword trees. 1.1.2 2022-10-05 ---------------- * Fixed "java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException" when importing keyword trees. 1.1.1 2022-05-26 ---------------- * If the Search button is clicked within the following trees, all nodes will be expanded before searching: Keywords, Timeline, Miscellaneous. Now search will be applied within all e.g. keywords and not only within expanded. File system trees will not expand, because that can cost a huge amount of resources. * URIs changed from "jphototagger.org" to "elmar-baumann.de/JPhotoTagger". The "org"-Domain will cost me money in future. JPhotoTagger is a free program and I did earn not one cent with it and I don't wont do so in future. * Version set to 1.1. Due to nearly 14 years of usage this shall be a signal, that JPhotoTagger is not an Alpha or Beta version. 0.44.9 2022-02-28 ------------------ * When the button "Collapse all" was clicked in a tree view, e.g. within "Keywords", the whole tree does not disappear. The nodes of the first level will remain visible. 0.44.8 2021-07-19 ------------------ * Added Setting to "Edit > Settings > 6. Miscellaneous > Miscellaneous": Lock XMP sidecar files while writing. Uncheck this can be useful on computers with Mac OS especially on NAS if errors occur while writing XMP sidecar files. 0.44.6 2020-08-09 ------------------ * Rename dialog has progress bar for renaming via templates * Moving files uses newer Java API. Under some circumstances files would not be moved, e.g. when using under Linux symbolic links. * When importing image files, thus will be sorted by their file time (last modification) rather than by their EXIF date time taken. This will speed up the import. 0.44.5 2020-04-26 ------------------ * When renaming a folder, only the descendant folders will be updated, not the whole folders view. This speeds up renaming. The complete refresh was introduced in 0.44.3 version's bugfix. 0.44.4 2020-04-24 ------------------ * Whithin the thumbnails window, files can be sorted by their natural order (1, 6, 10 instead 1, 10, 6). 0.44.3 2020-04-23 ------------------ * Bugfix: After renaming a folder in the folder or favorites view, both views will be refreshed because the descendant folders of the renamed folder were not changed internally. 0.44.2 2020-04-22 ------------------ * Bugfix: In the keywords tree, keywords can be renamed to equal names, if only uppercase/lowercase characters are different. For example, now "flower" can be renamed to "Flower". 0.44.1 2020-04-21 ------------------ * Edit > Settings > 5. Exclude: File Patterns When updating the database keywords and other referenced data will be treated. 0.44.0 2020-04-19 ------------------ * In the file import dialog, custom subdirectory naming templates can be created. 0.43.3 2020-04-16 ------------------ * Added command line option: -Djpt.home="" Alternative existing writable directory, where JPhotoTagger stores it's settings. Without this option, JPhotoTagger stores it's settings into the user directory, within Windows e.g. "C:\Users\mary", under Unixoides e.g. "/home/mary". Does this directory not exist or is not writable, JPhotoTagger uses without query the user directory. So JPhotoTagger can use multiple databases and settings. For example images can resist on an external drive with their own database. On that drive there can be a script file (batch file) for starting JPhotoTagger. Alternatively a script file with a different name can be used. Example for a Windows batch file: @echo off start "" javaw -Xms30m -Xmx1g -Duser.language=en -jar -Djpt.home="D:\\Images" JPhotoTagger.jar Example for a Bash script: #!/bin/sh java -Xms30m -Xmx1g -Duser.language=en -jar -Djpt.home="/mnt/images" JPhotoTagger.jar & 0.43.2 2020-04-15 ------------------ * When moving keywords from the keyword tree into a text field of the advanced search dialog (F3), the user will be asked, whether parent keywords shall be transferred too. * Bugfix: Handling long sidecar file names too, see Bugfix in 0.43.0. 0.43.1 2020-04-14 ------------------ * Added to the thumbnails window the sort order "Filename (natural)". 1.jpg, 100.jpg, 5.jpg will be sorted ascending to 1.jpg, 5.jpg, 100.jpg. The regular sort would order 100.jpg before 5.jpg. 0.43.0 2020-04-13 ------------------ * Bugfix: When selected files moved while creating a new folder, XMP sidecarfiles will be moved too. This occurs if thumbnails are selected when a new folder was created and the question was confirmed, whether selected files should be moved to that folder. 0.42.11 2019-10-04 ------------------ * "File > Database ... > Modify" contains new action: 5. Copy keywords from the keywords tree into the keywords list. * Whithin the plugin "HTML Report" a delimiter for multiple values (keywords) can be selected: Edit > Settings > 8. Plugins > HTML Report * When creating the keywords tree, sorting will applied after reading the keywords from database. This speeds up the creation process. * Accelerated importing keyword trees. Side effects: 1. Imported Keywords will not be added automatically to the keywords list. Use the modify action mentioned above. 2. The keywords tree will rebuilt from scratch when the import is finished. 0.42.10 2019-08-04 ------------------ * Bugfix: After re-ordering of images, the selection of a photo album won't be lost. This bug did exist prior to the changes whithin version 0.42.9. 0.42.9 2019-08-03 ----------------- * Reordering images in the Photo Albums does not clear their selection 0.42.8 2019-04-19 ----------------- * Bugfix: When saving a file rename template, the name input dialog can be used 0.42.7 2019-01-19 ----------------- * Added two settings: Edit > Settings > 6. Miscellaneous > Miscellaneous: + Create XMP file, if not exists + Write EXIF date taken automatically into new created/modified XMP file if absent These settings are described in the contextual sensitive help (F1 within this settings page, currently only in German). 0.42.6 2018-12-27 ----------------- * Bugfix: In the keywords tree, a keyword could be copied into itself 0.42.5 2018-12-26 ----------------- * A photo album can set as target album via the album's context menu. If a target album exists, selected images can be added to or removed from the target album with the key "B": Not existing images in the target album will be added, existing images will be removed from the target album. This function is also available through the thumbnails window's context menu: Select images > Add to / remove from the target album. 0.42.4 2018-12-23 ----------------- * Introduced a cursor: In the thumbnails window a cursor can be moved with the arrow keys. If the Ctrl key is pressed simultaneously, the cursor will be moved whithout changing the image's selection. When Ctrl and Space pressed simultaneously, the image under the cursor will be added to the current selection. That means, multiple images can be selected through the keyboard. The cursor is a dark reddish border surrounding the image. 0.42.3 2018-12-22 ----------------- * Where possible, selected previous GUI when closing a dialog 0.42.2 2018-12-21 ----------------- * Fixed some GUI scaling issues. 0.42.1 2018-12-16 ----------------- * If a complete year or complete month is selected in timeline, the selection will be kept and not all thumbnails will be reloaded. * Added to file import folder creation templates YYYY/MM: A folder per year, within that folder a subfolder per month. 0.42.0 2018-12-15 ----------------- * If a font scale factor other than 1 is set, the GUI will be better scaled than previously. This was a huge change. Please inform us if problems with the GUI appearing. 0.41.3 2018-12-04 ----------------- * User can define up to 10 Shortcuts for applying specific keywords: Windows > Shortcuts for applying keywords fast... * Autocomplete in fast search text field is cases insensitive by default 0.41.2 2018-12-01 ----------------- * Increased maximum thumbnail size from 400 pixels per side to 800 pixels. 0.41.1 2018-12-01 ----------------- * In the keywords tree right and input helper multiple keywords can be selected and applied to images via drag & drop. * Integrated JAXB libraries. These were removed in Java 9. Hence parts of JPhotoTagger imports and exports wouldn't work, if JPhotoTagger runs with Java 9 or higher. * Increased count of automatically saved JPhotoTagger data from 5 to 9. 0.41.0 2018-11-24 ----------------- * HSQL database reverted to version 1.8.0.10. Previous databases of versions 2.x will be renamed and a new empty database will be created. Then automatically saved data will be imported. This was necessary, because newer databases can cause "hangers". 0.40.0 2018-10-20 ----------------- * HSQL database updated to version 2.4.1. When starting, old databases will be converted into the new format and can't be used by previous JPhotoTagger versions anymore. 0.37.11 2018-10-05 ------------------ * Dark Look & Feel: Selection in tables will not make text invisible 0.37.10 2018-10-04 ------------------ * Bugfix: EXIF Makernotes (of some cameras) will be read again 0.37.9 2018-10-03 ----------------- * Bugfix: Focal length and ISO were not extracted from the image's EXIF metadata. 0.37.8 2018-03-24 ----------------- * The import dialog displays a warning, that the imported images won't be added to the album "Previous imported", if a script will be executed after import. 0.37.7 2018-03-18 ----------------- * In keywords tree views can be displayed, in how many images a keyword is contained: View > Display keyword count in tree/list views. 0.37.6 2018-03-10 ----------------- * Fixed window title when choosing the special album "Previous import", "Picked" and "Rejected". 0.37.5 2018-03-10 ----------------- * Added SQL query browser: Tools > Database SQL query 0.37.4 2018-03-04 ----------------- * Added file type filters for images with an exact star rating count (1 - 5). 0.37.3 2018-02-15 ----------------- * In XMP tab is selectable, whether to scan for embedded XMP if no XMP sidecar file exists. 0.37.2 2018-02-11 ----------------- * Added action to thumbnails' context menu: Plugins > Remove with ExifTool all metadata from image file (EXIF, IPTC, XMP). * IPTC settings also accessible in the main window's "IPTC" tab. * In the tab "Edit" Enter or double click on a keyword triggers the edit dialog for renaming a keyword. 0.37.1 2018-02-10 ----------------- * New menu item in the thumbnails' context menu: Plugins > Write metadata of XMP sidecar file into image file with ExifTool * In keywords list views can be displayed, in how many images a keyword is contained: View > Display keyword count in list views. * JPhotoTagger's version is displayed in the main window title bar. 0.36.0 2018-02-04 ----------------- * When starting, JPhotoTagger checks, if it can get sufficient maximum memory. If not, an error message will be displayed. * Integrated ExifTool support, thus metadata can be written into image files: "Tools > Write metadata into images with ExifTool" and "Edit > Settings > ExifTool metadata writer". 0.35.2 2018-01-30 ----------------- * In the Settings "5. Exclude" folders can be added via a dialog. 0.35.1 2018-01-29 ----------------- * Fixed Bug: Directory chooser can be opened again (throwed Exception due a missing icon). * When renaming a keyword in list view only in case, it will be renamed in the database too, e.g. "TREE" -> "tree" and appears in the renamed case whithin the list view. 0.35.0 2018-01-28 ----------------- * Scaled remaining icons, see 0.34.12. 0.34.12 2018-01-27 ------------------ * When starting, JPhotoTagger checks larger screen resolutions and scales fonts and many symbols, if the user did not adjust a scale factor in the settings. Compared to the previous scaling also icons will be appropriately scaled on scale factors 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3. 0.34.11 2017-12-10 ------------------ * Added preference key "Preferences.DisableSaveExifToXmpDateCreated". "Preferences.DisableSaveExifToXmpDateCreated=1" in "Settings.properties" disables automatic writing the image creation date read from the image's EXIF metadata into the XMP sidecar file as "Iptc4xmpCore:DateCreated" when it's not present in XMP file or the user has not input this value. 0.34.10 2017-10-02 ------------------ * Check for newer versions does not try to download.

Miscellaneous > EXIF > Miscellaneous: EXIF text charset. GUI for changes in Version 0.34.3. * Edit > Settings > 6. Miscellaneous > Lool and Feel of JPhotoTagger: Font scale factor. GUI for changes in Version 0.34.2. 0.34.3 2016-05-27 ----------------- * Added settings parameter "ExifImageDescriptionCharSet". Uses a different character set to decode the bytes in the EXIF fields using ASCII characters. Currently these fields are 270 (ImageDescription), 271 (Make), 272 (Model), 305 (Software), 315 (Artist), 34852 (SpectralSensitivity), 42016 (ImageUniqueID). Example: "ExifImageDescriptionCharSet=UTF-8". Not exposed to the GUI. 0.34.2 2016-05-25 ----------------- * Added settings parameter "JPhotoTaggerFontScale". Scales all Fonts.

Time includes hours, minutes and seconds. 0.32.12 2013-06-29 ------------------ * Bugfix: Deleting a Favorite could change the sort order of Favorites 0.32.11 2013-05-31 ------------------ * Bugfix: Fixed IrfanView Slideshow Plugin due Oracle's Changes to the Runtime class' behaviour in JRE 7 Update 21 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/7u21-relnotes-1932873.html#jruntime) * Renamed in program's window left tab "Searches" into "Saved Searches" 0.32.10 2013-05-04 ------------------ * Re-arranged tags in Edit tab: image related data first, photographer etc. second * Added "City" to Miscellaneous tab 0.32.9 2013-05-03 ----------------- * Bugfix: Fixed in the "Edit" tab labels for * Country * State * City Previously they were designated as related to the photographer, but they are related to the image's content. Also re-ordered these tags to reflect their geographical hierarchy from top (first level = country) to bottom (third level = city). * Tab "Miscellaneous" contains country and state * JPhotoTagger creates thumbnails of PNG images (if not an own program/script creates the thumbnails) 0.32.8 2013-04-02 ----------------- * Bugfix: When exporting the keywords tree into a XML file, parent nodes were exported as child nodes too, e.g. Landscape > Landscape > Woods 0.32.7 2013-02-22 ----------------- * Windows: Some Look & Feels did ignore localized folder names. They displayed e.g. "Users" instead of "Benutzer" (German locale). 0.32.6 2013-02-19 ----------------- * Bugfix: A choosen Windows Classic Look & Feel was not restored after restarting JPhotoTagger (Windows only issue) 0.32.5 2013-02-15 ----------------- * Dialog for importing files suggests up to 10 previous selected source and target folders * Confirm message, whether no longer existing folders shall be deleted 0.32.4 2013-02-14 ----------------- * Bugfix: ISO values and focal lengths less or equal to zero will not be inserted into the database, the same for camera model names with non ASCII characters. If erroneous data shall be fixed, the fastest way is via the tab "Miscellaneous > Technics": Select erroneous ISO values, focal lengths or camera model names, then select the displayed thumbnails, right click and call the context menu item "Refresh > Update metadata". Then you can delete not referenced data: "File > Database > Maintainance: Delete not referenced data (EXIF XMP)" * Bugfix: Special Photo Album names ("Previous import", ...) were inserted multiple times into the database and weren't localized. When JPhotoTagger was started first in English and then in German, these special names could appear multiple times. 0.32.3 2013-02-12 ----------------- * EXIF metadata of Olympus RAW files will be read (tested for OM-D E-M5). To enable this, the suffix "ORF" has to be added as user defined file type (Windows > User defined file types). 0.32.2 2013-02-04 ----------------- * Bugfix: When updating thumbnails automatically, the thumbnails window does not move to the top position (Bug since Version 0.30.11) 0.32.1 2013-02-02 ----------------- * Moved English language resources into separate project. This process has been done automatically as far as possible and in the best case, no errors occured. Please report any translation errors. This has two improvements: 1. Every non programmer can do the English translation using OmegaT, see http://www.jphototagger.org/dev/translate.html 2. For replacing wrong translations or adding a new language, replacing the localized JAR does the job, no complete JPhotoTagger application has to be built * Added Look & Feels (only choosabel, if available under the operating system): GTK, Motif, Windows Classic * Changing the Look & Feel doesn't require restarting JPhotoTagger 0.32.0 2013-02-01 ----------------- * Added Option: Menu "View > Display Flag: Sidecar file exists" * Bugfix: Moving files could cause a deadlock 0.31.1 2013-01-31 ----------------- * Bugfix in error log handler * Added Look&Feels: Nimbus, JGoodies 0.31.0 2013-01-31 ----------------- * The look and feel of JPhotoTagger can be modified: Edit > Settings > 6.
