Incorrect originalWidth for images in portrait mode?

In this srcset test album a show as first two images an image of the same size, but the first image in landscape mode and the 2nd in portrait mode. I show below an image o.a. ${originalWidth}x${originalHeight} and $imageWidth}x{$imageHeight} .

The first image shows as original dimensions 4032x3024 which is correct. However for the 2nd image the same value is displayed. I think this should be 3024x4032. Is this a bug?

If I designed this from scratch now, I'd probably make the originalWidth and originalHeight variables respect how the image is oriented when viewed. However, I believe the way it works now is that these variables reflects the pixel width and height of the physical image on disk. It may very well be that this is a portrait image (according to the image orientation metadata) that has the physical pixels laid out in a landscape manner. To be guaranteed that you get the original width and height adjusted for the orientation, call getSize() on the current AlbumObject.

David, you are correct, his picture is shot with a normal camera, so it is 90 degrees rotated

Global variable ${orientation} displays 'left', for the first LS picture it shows 'normal'.

So, for whatever it's worth, you can consider ${originalWidth} and ${originalHeight} as describing the width and height of the physical pixel data of the original file. Use getSize() to get interpreted values.

Sorry David, you have for me, as stupid Java programmer, to show a fully coded example!
For me is the use of the global variable orientation much more attractive!

"orientation" is a local variable, but by all means, use it if you prefer so. Here's a full example to get the visual width of the current object:
currentObject.getSize().getWidth()

By the way, if you prefer to use the "orientation" variable, pay attention that it is in fact an object and not a plain string, so you can easily check whether the image is rotated to the left or right (i.e. that originalWidth and originalHeight should be flipped), just say
if (orientation.isRotated()) { ... }
