Hi Tom,
The feature is still there and I see data in the exif hotbar without ant problem: file size, pixel size, ISO, camera settings and colour space.
Not all images have exif data, especially those that have been saved in some other application where the data is lost.
Is that the case here?
Terry

Since it wasn't working for me last night I assumed the feature was gone or broken and didn't investigate further.

Since it still works for Fred and Terry I looked into it today and found out that it works for me too in most cases. I was browsing folders on my camera club's laptop, something I do every month for processing to submit club photos for competition.

When browsing to a directory with a drive letter, it works. So: Y:\2013_14\201403\Competition works fine, as does any directory on my own local computer.

but this equivalent to the same location doesn't work: \\Ycc-pc\c\2013_14\201403\Competition. The same thumbnails are shown and everything seems to work the same except for the missing status bar info display.

I usually map the club's laptop to y: but last night for the first time, I didn't.

So is this a problem worth fixing? At least I now know how to get around the problem.

If for some reason you really need the EXIF data for some images in a folder, and that folder comes up in Q with no EXIF, select the ones you want, or all, and right click on the thumbs. Then COPY to a regular drive... The EXIF is back.

For one at a time, the easiest is to use InstaView (left click and hold). Not as fast as the status bar info display though.
