Change Details

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=399069 Would be nice to allow users to edit metadata. We know the metadata is parsed from Exiv2, which has capabilities per image type. In `ImageMetaInfoModel::getInfoForKey` we read from the hash map `mMetaInfoGroupVector` we read the following keys: - GeneralGroup - ExifGroup - FitsGroup - IptcGroup - XmpGroup In turn those keys represent a `MetaInfoGroup` per metadata type. Modifying this hash map is probably sufficient, but we'll need to see if all the capabilities from Exiv2 have been included. We will want them to be `KTextEdit` fields so the user can make changes. Updates can be automatically saved or manually saved, understanding the complexity tradeoffs. Metadata entries can be updated with `ImageMetaInfoModelPrivate::setGroupEntryValue`. example: ``` d->setGroupEntryValue(GeneralGroup, "General.Size", sizeString) ```

I do not think this action is connected to the `ImageMetaInfoModelPrivate::setGroupEntryValue` but that may be the right addition to enable this.
