<title>View detailed information about a picture</title>

Pictures taken by digital cameras are stored with a host of extra information embedded in them, such as the date that they were taken, what exposure settings were used on the camera and, in some cases, even where the picture was taken.

This topic shows you how to access this information.

<section id="date">
<title>Show the date in the status bar</title>
 You can display the date that a picture was taken in the status bar at the bottom of the window.
 To show the status bar, press the menu button in the top-right corner of the window and select <guiseq><gui style="menuitem">Show</gui> <gui style="menuitem">Status Bar</gui></guiseq>.
 Then, press the menu button in the top-right corner of the window, select <gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui> and go to the <gui>Plug-ins</gui> tab. Then, tick <gui>Date in statusbar</gui>.

<section id="exif">
