photos taken with my samsung galaxy [jpgs] rotate when imported into xara - either 90/270 or 180 degrees
does not happen with my image viewers, affinity photo, or any other program I use
I think this may have come up before but can't remember...
It is a nuisence - why?
The iPhone has an option when downloading images to my computer to rotate photos. Normally I don't enable that option, but once when I did I noticed that certain photos did rotate and not in a way I desired. Probably info in the photo that says how it is to be oriented that Xara is reading.
I use an Andoid phone, but I don't think it's a Xara problem. Some of my photo's have autorotated in Zoner Photo Studio
thanks keith - if they all rotate the same way, it's straight forward to reset them all, trouble is that's not always the case
handrawn, just tried four rotated phone shots with my Galaxy S8 and all came across with the right orientations.
I dragged from the phone to the desktop and then into Xara as the XDA does not recognise the phone as a valid path/device.
I'll report back if they are any different when they arrive in the Cloud (OneDrive).

ok - attached is an example - apologies for the subject matter to city dwellers who think that such things are someone else's problem

I copy the files from samsung to desktop and import to xara from there
thing is - they are ok in all my programs including image viewers, it's only xara that does this on my system
but.... the article you linked refers to this link https://www.howtogeek.com/254830/why...ectly-rotated/
could it be that xara does not obey the Exif tag ? :rolleyes:
