Hi,
I love using the "Multi Rename Tool" - its really powerful, especially because it allows me to use data from Plugins (tc,exif,media).
But there is one thing which shouldn't be missing in it:
The ability to change attributes.
For what do I need that?
Here a simple example:
I have plenty of photos, where I would like to change the time of the file to the time of the exif data.
How do you guys like the idea?
Is there any chance of getting such a feature into the 7 version of TC?
Thanks for answers in advance.
Cheers, Tigerix.

Hmmh, did you tried the new "Change attribute" dialog in TC7?
should do the job.
Sorry for the German "Bild aufgenommen am". In English it's something like "Photo recorded at" from the Explorer shell-extension.
In principle it should be possible to select any date info from any existing content plugin at the right side, but only a few number of contents plugins could be used at the left side to change attributes.
Kind regards,
Holger
Code: Select all
[x] change plugin attribute:
"tc.Writedate" = "[=shelldetails.Bild aufgenommen am]"Sorry for the German "Bild aufgenommen am". In English it's something like "Photo recorded at" from the Explorer shell-extension.

Having a similar problem here...
I've got some photos that were took with the wrong year set in the camera. To correct this I want to add one year to the file dates (and possibly exif-dates). Is this possible with the "Change Attribute" dialogue? It seems to me that there's no way to set a date relative to the existing one.
PS: maybe there's a work-around with exiftool? I think there's an option for a "date/time shift" there. But can TC do this, too?

I wrote little special tool for such operation, it allows to shift time/date of all loaded to list files (on the same value). You may get it here (just type few digits from pic and press button below).jj42 wrote:PS: maybe there's a work-around with exiftool? I think there's an option for a "date/time shift" there.

You can also do this using XnView for instance.I've got some photos that were took with the wrong year set in the camera. To correct this I want to add one year to the file dates (and possibly exif-dates).

The photo handler available free from Microsoft - Windows Live Photo Gallery also has a Time/Date Taken slider adjuster.
Just select the photos with an offset/incorrect time, right-click and then it will allow you to set a new offset for them all, and the difference is shown as you adjust. You don't change the time/date of each photo, per se (although you can), you set by how much you want them all moved - say, 365 days 2 minutes, 55 seconds.
And that's written to the Exif data if there is any.
Easy. Good program; easiest tagging of all progs I've seen. Excellent shadow/highlight fixer, straightener, etc.
