Exif

Post by mkm1 »

Hello,
I am new to Lubuntu, but not to Linux.
Can anybody explain how to activate this "optional EXIF support" within PCManFM?
I would like to see my camera model, exposure time and so on.

Thanks in advance!
Manfred

interesting.
searching it only returns different permutations of the same non-descript sentence "thumbnails with optional EXIF support".
i looked at the dependencies: pcmanfm => libfm => libexif.
that's a hard dependency on my machine (pcmanfm 1.2.5), so exif support should be there, full stop.
maybe it is
a) only for thumbnail generation
b) only considers the rotation of the image and nothing else.
