Correct.
In the view of recently imported, select all the photos, then edict comment or tags, will apply to all of them.
Ah, thanks. That's worse than the f-spot behaviour but better than my first attempt.
By default it sorts the photos by /year/month/day7 directories. I changed that to /year/month/.
But in the program it displays by event, and normally an event is a day. But you can rename them to anything like "wedding 2016".
The problem seems to be that it hasn't assigned an 'event' to the photos I imported.
I don't remember if it does for preexisting files, or only for those take from the camera. And those from the camera wait till you hit the "import" button.
Whereas all pre-existing photos have the date assigned to them automatically as an event, despite the whole concept never having existed in f-spot. Perhaps there's a way to tell it that the photos I imported today, that were saved today, that were taken today, should have 'today' associated with them without me having to do too much (preferably nothing!)
No, it uses the internal date inside the photo files. EXIF. I don't have leap, so it might display a bit different in there. There is a panel on the left with several main level entries: Library Flagged Last Import Events \ 2016 \ August Fri Aug 26, 2016 July ... Folders \ cer Tags Albacete Madrid ... Trash O Missing files Have a look at your preferences setup. You really need to read the help file! :-P -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
