Using the mobile app to take photos of items, but we are having issues of photos taken in landscape mode are written directly to storage as a direct pixels. As a result our image displays have the images jumbled in every orientation. Has anyone done any image manipulation to read the metadata of what orientation that an image was taken in?

Hi Andrew,

Could you provide some more context into how you are storing and displaying the images?

Screenshots of what you are using to store and display are all good resources to give us context into what the issue is. For example, scripts, component properties, WebDev resources, etc. will help give a better picture.

The more detail you give, the better the community can help you.

You could also try reaching out through our [Support Help Center](https://support.inductiveautomation.com/hc/en-us) to open a ticket with our support department.
