When I set the filename to use the %date variable, it doesn't work correctly for me.
Problem 1 For example, using "%filename - %time" as the template, a jpeg produces IMG_3664 - 01/18/46 PM.pto I'd prefer periods instead of slashes and 24-hr time, but that at least is the correct original time as exiftool reports it. For the same file, if I use %date instead of %time, I get just 2019.pto The filename preview in the prefs shows the slashes in the date (3/20/2021), so I wonder if somehow the save process is swallowing what it thinks is the entire path, which would include the part of the date string up to the last slash. If I reverse those two items in the template, I get the following, which is consistent with that idea: 2019 - IMG_3664.pto Problem 2: If I use a png I created from a heic file (which hugin doesn't seem to like) and to make sure it has all the date data that the original does (with exiftool -tagsfromfile), hugin uses the literal string "%date" in the filename. IOW it doesn't seem to read the date or time info at all. This despite the png also having date/time info in PNG tags. Any help appreciated, but the first at least seems like a bug.
