Christian Luidolt Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 It should be possible to show the EXIF data of images - there would be two places where this would fit: additional Studio tab - e.g. named Information (could Display of non-image resources as well, e.g. number of words/paragraphs/... of a text field, ...) in the Resource Manager My use case would be to look up the GPS and other location information of the embedded image.

MmmMaarten Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 @Christian Luidolt Just in case you need to view it now, there is a free tool online which I think is pretty usefull to view exif data: https://sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/ Quote
Christian Luidolt Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 @wigglepixel viewing the EXIF-data in an other program is no problem at all. But locating the image on the disk (or in Lightroom) takes much time. Quote

Christian Luidolt Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 @haakoo @wigglepixel Thank you for showing me tips how to view EXIF data in an external program. But my problem is to view EXIF data comfortable without searching for the original (if available at all, because if a image is embedded I've found no way simple to copy/export the image). Quote

Christian Luidolt Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 @haakoo Thanks again - But: All I want is an easy way to show the EXIF data of images placed inside an Affinity Publisher document (regardless if - or where - I have a copy on my hard disk) Quote

There you find in 'View > Studio > Exif' everything in place. This of course requires that you own Affinity Photo. This is a (temporary?) workaround. Currently it is not possible to switch back from APh to APub. I assume this will be added later. I do not know if the 'Exif Studio' will be part of APub at some time, though. At least this way you don't have to look for a copy if the image on your harddisk d. Quote Affinity Suite on Windows (V2) and iPad (V2). Beta testing when available.

Christian Luidolt Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 @dominik Thanks, but File->Edit in Photo opens a whole page in Affinity Photo - and the EXIF tab in Affinity Phtos does not show the EXIF data of the embedded image but the whole page Quote

But you have to click on and select the image and you should be able to read out the Exif data. At least this works for me on Windows.

Christian Luidolt Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 @dominik Thank your for your answer - but selecting the image in Affity Photo does not show the EXIF data of the image - I'm using Affinity Publisher 1.7.0.227 and Affinity Photo 1.7.0.231 on Windows 10 Quote

Do you have the EXIF studio panel visible? https://affinity.help/photo/en-US.lproj/index.html?page=pages/Panels/exifPanel.html?title=EXIF panel Quote

Christian Luidolt Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 @fde101 @dominik I'm sure that I've selected the image itself (tried it multiple times, different documents, loaded the image itself into Affinity Photo and confirmed that EXIF-data is shown) - Thanks for your help - but this would only be a rather uncomfortable work around, so it's no issue for me that this does not work as.

fde101 Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 I think the guess here is that when the Photo persona is made available in Publisher the EXIF studio panel might get dragged in along with it, so if you have both, you would simply need to switch to the Photo persona to view the data from right inside of Publisher without needing to switch to the other program...
