I have updated my page with Javascript functions for date calculations and added the function stringToDate() which formats a DD[-./]MM[-./]YYYY formatted date to YYYYMMDD for use in Javascript to compare with other dates, for example.

Version 1.2.8 of the Blogspot.stack was released on 28 Nov 2019

If you purchased this stack, you can download the latest version via your Paddle account.
If not, you can read more about it here .

Changes, additions and fixes:

• Google reduced the number of posts returned at a time to 150. Therefore some internals would jump to the wrong set of posts and so skip some posts that would then not be visible in the Archives-list.
• An error with an unused variable has been fixed.

A new version of SetEXIFData , my GUI for exiftool by Phil Harvey , is now available:

v8.0
(25 October 2019)

Added:
- For retrieving a date from a file name, where there's only YYYY-MM, you can now enter a default day in the 'Date/Time original'-field for Day.

Changed:
- When geotagging a movie file, only XMP-group GPS-tags are used.

Due to a hardware crash last night of the VM where my virtual server is, eh was, running on, and a backup that occurred to be invalid, some recent files and images are now gone forever, unless one of the two failing SSD's can be recovered tomorrow.

So if you want to download something, and the file the link is pointing to, is missing, let me know.

I am now trying to get as much as I have saved back online.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

A new version of SetEXIFData , my GUI for exiftool by Phil Harvey , is now available:

v7.9
(25 August 2019)

Fixes:
- GPS data is now present in GPS, XMP and EXIF.

A new version of SetEXIFData , my GUI for exiftool by Phil Harvey , is now available:

v7.8
(09 Juni 2019)

New:
- Added a '%-d', '%-s' and '%-t' as placeholders when renaming files. The '-' indicates that dates and times will be formatted with a minus-sign: YYYY-MM-DD and HH-MM[-SS].

Changes:
- The preset 'Artist' does no longer save nor read the camera-data to its presets. Use the new preset-menu on the Camera-tab for that.

Fixes:
- Fixed the usage of the placeholders while renaming files. The placehodler %s and %t sometimes read incorrect date/time data and so could have messed up your new file names.
- Fixed the usage of the checkboxes with the dates. DateTimeOriginal is not modified anymore when 'Set the EXIF Create Dates/Times...' is unchecked. When 'Set the EXIF Create Dates/Times...' is unchecked and 'Set the File Creat Date/Time...' is checked, and you specified a static interval, the interval is added to the EXIF date and then used to modify the Finder's dates.


My ical/ics calendar file viewer ICS Viewer is updated to version 3.9

v3.9
Bug fixes:
- Fixed a possible hang when choosing a date-range.

A new version of SetEXIFData , my GUI for exiftool by Phil Harvey , is now available:

v7.7
(10 May 2019)

New:
- Added a 'Save as set...' popup menu to the 'Camera'-section to just save your camera-details.

Note : if you used the Artist-preset to also save camera-settings, you should now transfer the camera-settings to this new Camera-presets possibility. In v7.8, which will for this reason be forcibly released on May 31, the Camera-settings will be removed from the Artist-presets.

Changes:
- Changed the text 'Image(s)' in Notifications into 'File(s)', since also movies can be processed.
- Changed the text 'Drag images ...' in the main window into 'Drag images and/or movies ...'.
- 'Autofill' checkbox for 'Caption/Description' now omits the file extension from the file name.

Fix:
- Fixed the display of an ampersand (&) in set-names: a saved set with a name like 'You & me' was shown as 'You  me' in a popup-menu.
