Off topic but I couldn't help but giggle at the translation of my boss's first name to "Freixo"

We do support "use". This particular document is technically invalid SVG due to the circular reference on #s, but it seems many apps silently ignore it and proceed anyway, so that's what we'll do -
We'll strip Camera RAW metadata on export to raster formats (e.g. JPEG).

As I say, this is really more of a Photoshop & Camera RAW setting (and you can turn it off in Camera RAW) for any file that has, at some stage in its past, already been touched by such software. But we'll consider an addition to our "Embed Metadata" checkbox to allow you to strip out only the Camera RAW metadata from exported JPEGs, so that you can stop this Adobe feature from being triggered.

Hi @Ldina, Photoshop opens processed files in Camera RAW by default if an XMP sidecar file is present. So one thing to check is that you don't have a sidecar in the same directory, left over from your work with the DNG in your Adobe software. If that doesn't solve it, it is possible that Photoshop is picking up on some Camera RAW develop metadata in the JPEG; if so, it may be appropriate for us to start automatically stripping that out on export, but it's something we'll need to investigate further. You can also change your Camera RAW settings to "Disable JPEG Support" entirely.

affinity designer v2 folder/directory error

This is a common shortcut with some graphics drivers to alter the rotation of the screen; it isn't Affinity doing that I recommend checking your nVidia/AMD/etc settings. -
Might have a Metadata bug
Tom Lachecki replied to DeepDesertPhoto's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
It will be fixed in a forthcoming update. The reason it appeared to work in Affinity Photo 1 is that we did not have a proper date/time widget with user input until Affinity Photo 2. We were just showing the timestamp without any timezone information at all. It would appear to be correct, but if you went on holiday you'd soon realise that your computer local time was not being taken into consideration properly then either. Times in exported data would also have had the offset. It's just much more obvious now: the user input is interpreted as being in local time for convenience, so the whole widget must be timezone-aware. -

Thanks - it's not setting the EXIF timezone information, but it's setting some data in the Makernotes we can start using.
