Description Guillaume Zin 2009-01-29 22:19:37 UTC
Version:           0.10.0-rc1 (using 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27-11-generic

Hello,

When importing photos from my Canon Powershot A80 with Digikam 0.10-rc1 on kubuntu 8.10 with KDE 4.2, the photo that gets sequence number 1 is the most recent one. It was the reverse behavior with version 0.9, was wish 88253 (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88253) implemented? I prefer the old way and it seems to be a bug.

Thank you.

Best regards.

Guillaume

It's more logic to see last shots on the top of icon view.

But yes, in this case, sequence number is not adapted...

suggestions ?

I agree that it is more convenient to see the last picture first. But there is a coherency problem: I can't rename files afterward (the kipi plugin for batch rename is not ready yet) and Digikam doesn't propose to watch albums this way (or I didn't see the option), I mean that when you watch an album sorted by name, you can't choose to reverse the sorting order, and in my old albums, the sequence number 1 is for the oldest picture...

I would let the user choose how the sequence number should begin : first entry or last entry of selection, or I would add a menu entry to sort the camera pictures (I would prefer this one).

Guillaume,

>add a menu entry to sort the camera pictures

I'm not agrre with this way, because camera gui do not work as album gui. there is not cache mechanism to get thumbnail. If you canges sort order, all thumbs need to be reloaded to rebuild icon view.

Here i have a patch to fix number ordering accordingly with new sort. Older items from selection is #1. At least, this will make an homogenous behavour.
