Hi Fabrizio and Nigel,

If I update GPS information of an image, ImageEN writes a lot of empty GPS fields and this is incorrectly interpreted by GeoSetter:



ImageEN writes the following GPS info:
GPS Dest Latitude 0 deg 0' 0.00"
GPS Dest Longitude 0 deg 0' 0.00"

But this is wrong, because it means that the camera looks to the (0,0) point in the map. This is why GeoSetter shows non-empty Direction.

Bottom line:
1. Zero value can not be specified as default values for Longitude and Latitude.
2. Empty GPS Dest Latitude and Longitude must be deleted from the EXIF.
3. You need to specify a custom integer value that must be out of the Long and Lat range and that will be interpreted as Empty value and you need to remove such fields from GPS while updating EXIF. For example:
GPS_EMPTY_VALUE=999999.

Could you please tell me whether this issue was fixed in the 5.0 version?

Next minor version will fix this (unfortunately not for the 5.0 version).
Starting from next release EXIF_GPSLatitude, EXIF_GPSLongitude, EXIF_GPSAltitude, EXIF_GPSSpeed, EXIF_GPSTrack, EXIF_GPSImgDirection, EXIF_GPSDestLatitude, EXIF_GPSDestLongitude, EXIF_GPSDestBearing and EXIF_GPSDestDistance will no longer saved when "Ref" corresponding values are empty

For example EXIF_GPSLatitudeRef is empty for default (instead of "N" or "E") so related EXIF_GPSLatitudeDegrees, EXIF_GPSLatitudeMinutes and EXIF_GPSLatitudeSeconds aren't written.

Thank you Fabrizio!

Does it possible to receive an early bug-fix version so I can include it into our production version?
