Rotated images on Windows

Post by Sadler »

I've been preparing some images (removing background, scaling, rotating, adding green screen etc). Part of my workflow is to prepare images for one side of the output then rotate them (using Windows Explorer context menu 'Rotate Right') to suit another. While doing this I note that the Magic Image and JPEGfolder nodes don't respect this rotation (EXIF orientation, I believe). Most other image application I've tried (viewers, Affinity Photo, Xara Designer, Touch Designer, XnView and others) respect the rotation - only 'Snip & Sketch' and Magic don't so far. If I 'touch' each rotated image in an editor the rotation is 'fixed' and Magic 'sees it' correctly.

If I 'touch' all the images, or just rotate them in Magic, then not a problem but it would be good if Magic respected this.
