Description S. Burmeister 2008-12-19 16:49:55 UTC
Version:           0.10-SVN (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

If I select a 10MP RAW image for editing and enable the "sharpen"-tool it takes digikam some minutes to create the preview (the tool's slider is set to 100).

Since this is a dual core with 2GB RAM I think that if this machine cannot generate a preview within a few seconds digikam should not try to do so automatically, but wait for the user to click on "try".
