Hi,

Many Thanks!
I finally managed searching files using following syntax:
( tn.[taken_time_iso] >  '2022-05-07 00:00:00') AND ( tn.[taken_time_iso] <  '2022-05-08 00:00:00')

Hi,

Searching (quering) feature is great.

Let consider I see following in My Metadata pane
Info > Date Taken : display 31/05/2022 13:59:50.825

How could I search all files from that same 'Date Taken' date : 31/05/2022 ?

I did try various combinaison like:
 tn.[taken_time_iso] like '2022:%:% %:%:%'
or
 tn.[taken_time_iso] = '31/05/2022 13:59:50.825'
in query Advanced pane but none give me results!

Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi,
For those who may interested, I managed doing a mass fix on files.

After setting Camera>Date/Time using MetaData editor (Set if Blank / Original Date/Time / \i:File date;)

I used RSP (Replace Studio Pro) tool from Funduc.com to achieve a Search and Replace in png files using following regular expression:
Search string: exif:DateTimeOriginal="??/??/????T*"
Replace by string : exif:DateTimeOriginal="%5%6%7%8-%3%4-%1%2T%9"

Afterward I simply selected again using ThumbsPlus and invoked a set to Exif date/time. :)

Hope this may help as this let clearly understand that stored date/time matter.

BTW: I searched a way to achieve similar using Python but fail to found  interesting
base sample script to manipulate  MetaData.

regards

Hi,

Thanks,

Regarding your question:

That's strange. Are you sure that it is setting the time stamp to the Metadata Date and not simply to the current system time? (which of course would also be wrong, but might have a different cause)
Yes, I selected "Set to XMP/EXIF date/time created" in "Modify File Info"

Does this also happen when you work with JPG files instead of PNG?

Not tested at time of posting because I started first doing this with old screenshots all are in png!

I make a test which gave interesting results:
When I save as jpg an existing png (with Camera>Original = 2020/06/15T10:46:39Z) the resulting jpg didn't retain that Metadata and prevent me doing a test.

I did manually add camera>Original Date/Time to that jpg file. Data was grabbed (Copy/paste) from above (2020/06/15T10:46:39Z) and I noticed that this not worked as expected!

I tested again adding camera>Original Date/Time to that jpg but replaced "/" by "-" and "T" by space (2020-06-15 10:46:39Z). Testing now "Set to XMP/EXIF date/time created" well worked!

Therefore, I understand that

I Have define following to set meta data from file date:
Set if Blank / Original Date/Time / \i:File date;
Set if Blank / Creation Date (xmp) / \i:File date;
Set if Blank / Modification date / \i:File date;
assigned values using the \i:file instruction are stored in a format they can't be reused later using date time (because of use "/" separator )

Maybe bring it to the attention of tech support..: http://www.thumbsplus.com/support.html

I will do as per suggested.

Thanks

ThumbsPlus v10 Questions / Batch SET Original Date/Time
« on: 2021-02-25 09:35:41 »
Hi,

I'm trying to set Camera > Original Date/Time using Batch Editor so that being able to set later on (after editing image)
the file info as original date/Time.

I'm this is for either old images with no EXIF at all) or also for screenshots. (.png files)

I Have define following to set meta data from file date:
Set if Blank / Original Date/Time / \i:File date;
Set if Blank / Creation Date (xmp) / \i:File date;
Set if Blank / Modification date / \i:File date;

Script well works :
if File Date is: 15/06/2020 10:38:17.203
Result is as expected  (see attachment).

ISSUE is that this also define a Metadata Date as the current date/time.

When I later use the "Modify File Info" > Set to XMP/EXIF date-time

The File Date-time is set to a "metadata Date" and not the "Camera>Original Date/Time" previously defined!

Any Idea?
Regards

Hi,
I often use the clipboard auto save to capture webex, Teams or zoom sessions.
I would like later on being able to select identified parts being in while over black
background, in order to process the whole content using OCR tools.
While in batch script creation I don't found any Select part (like for a crop
operation) so that to apply an invert color only on this identified part.

Is that possible? what about including in new version? would it be possible
using Python?

Thanks for any help you could provide.
regards
Bernard
