just ran into another brick wall on my way along the image handling learning curve...
Am I doing something wrong somewhere, or can MC simply not read EXIF info from tif files?
It seems that no matter what I do, MC always uses the tif files' 'date modified' flag.
Other software I've tried, including Directory Opus, and even the ages old software, Exifer, can read them.
MC's 'file type info' window merely proclaims "compression: TIF" and reports the dimensions and file size.
My gut feeling is that I've happened across another short-coming in MC and its image handling abilities, but figured I'd mention it, on the off-chance that there's a way around this.
It's frustrating because it means that if I want to continue, I need to manually enter information for a lot of files that is already present in the EXIF data, which to my mind, is a shameful waste of time and rescources.

I also remember reading a post that said that if you want MC to re-read EXIF data, using the 'update library from tags' would achieve this. This is only true if there are no proprietry <MJMD> tags present, in which case, MC ignores the EXIF data and only reads its own tag info.
