[Feature Request] Please allow saving tag changes locally to file itself, without needing to "export". #89

Describe the bug When I make changes to the tag of a picture - like adding a new tag to it, or removing any existing tag from it - that change is saved only the in the app, not to the file itself. When I check that file's property in Windows or in any other app, the file still has all the original tags only, and none of the changes I did in OneFolder.

To Reproduce

  1. Select any image in OneFolder library.
  2. Press T to open tag editor and add a new tag to the file, or remove any of the existing tags from the file
  3. Go to that file's folder in Windows Explorer, right click the file, click "properties", and then switch to "Details" tab, and see value for "Tags".
  4. The values won't show the changes made in OneFolder.

Expected behavior The tag changes I made in OneFolder, should get saved in the file itself.

OneFolder version

1.0.2

Desktop OS

Windows 11 Pro

Additional context

I found the app via comment in allusion repo. That comment did mention that the need of import / export is planned to be removed in future. Hence, making this post here.

Glad to see you here @bagarwa

So this feature was released but it didn't work well enough so we reverted it. I will look into what happened so we can released it again
