Version: 0.4.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.3) OS: Linux If you use ShowFoto to edit a series of images, you start to notice how long it takes for DigiKam to startup, even if is was just closed two seconds ago. Maybe this can be improved by delaying the actual loading of the image plugins, untill the user calls them from the menu?
No. this will require huge changes in code. digiKam image editor have not been designed like this. Also, just pass in command line the list of files to open. They will appear in thumbbar and just press on item to open it. Gilles Caulier
Since digiKam 5.2.0, all image editor plugins have been removed and embed as well in image editor/showfoto implementation. There is no more run-time loading of plugin libraries. Gilles Caulier
