Since a fews day - i cannot figure exactly since when and what could have changed anywhere - date / time of files as shown wrong in the attributes dialog.
i hope the printscreen is uploaded within this message.

The Attributes dialog is for changing things to specific values (which it then remembers for next time).
If you want to display and edit the file's current values, use the Metadata panel or dialog instead, as those do exactly that.
(I think we have plans to add a button to the Attributes dialog to grab the current times from the file so you can then edit them, but it still won't display them by default until that button is pushed; it remembers the last times you chose in case you want to use them again on some more files.)
hi
thanks for the reply. i guess i was following the wrong track.
anyway.. i do have a problem. i have a script (using since a few years) to set the files modified date/time to the created date/time.
however, since a week or so, the script
SetAttr MODIFIED=created
would set modified date/time to the current date/time not the file created date/time
(when i found that - not sure how long this is not working correctly, i used the change attributes dialog to check and was confused about the default seettings there. however, the script does not change the modified date to the created date
Does the button just run SetAttr MODIFIED=created on its own or is there more to it?
the original script had more... but i just tested this very line - and the date/time is set to current date/time not to the modified date/time of the file
It seems to work correctly for me in Opus 12.25.3 beta:
many thanks - i saw my fault now.
