You can assign a program to a filetype, so that it will be listed in the services (open with) menu. Just click on a file in dolphin or konqueror and choose "Properties". In the following popup dialog, choose the little screwdriver symbol and assign your application to the RAW format. It should be visible in digikam now. For me it works fine, I just assigned blender to open jpgs (which doesn't make sense) and now I have blender in the digiKam menu as well. Andi Created attachment 31838 [details]

I already read somewhere about this method, but it doesn't work. I have GIMP and ufraw in file type, but digikam allows me only to use showFoto. Can anyone from devteam look at this bug? I can send you orf files if you don't have them (everything works correctly with jpegs, problem is only with orfs). Well I'm from the dev team and as I said before, I can't confirm this. But sure you can sent my such a file... Andi Created attachment 31976 [details]
ufraw and digikam
One question: You use KDE4, but digiKam 0.9.5, right?
Why don't you try digiKam 0.10, which is the new version for KDE4?
digiKam 0.9.x is for KDE3 and I don't have it installed anymore to test your image with.
Also I guess digiKam 0.9.x is not capable of detecting services from KDE4.
So if you set ufraw in dolphin or konqueror to open .orf files, digiKam 0.9.x will not recognize it.
digiKam 0.10 however, will, see the screenshot.
If you really want to use 0.9.x in KDE4, try running konqueror for KDE3 and set the file type in there.

I use version from Arch Linux, but I can try 0.10, that makes sense. Thanks. I will try to install digiKam 0.9.x again right now and test it, although I'm pretty sure that the above comment must be true in your case. Andi Well Archlinux has kdemod / kdemod-legacy repos. Try to install at least kdemod-legacy/kdebase (maybe it is called differently) and you should have konqueror installed. Then try to set the correct filetype in there. Konqueror for KDE3 should be /opt/kde/bin/konqueror then. There are some packages in AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=digikam&do_Search=Go Or you can compile from the tarballs or trunk and install it manually. In that case I will install 0.10 from AUR in the evening, thanks again! Ok :-) Make sure to grab the kipi-plugins as well then (if you use them). And please tell us if everything is fine with 0.10, so we can close this report. BTW: Archlinux rocks :-) Andi One little note (yes I'm very verbose today :-)) : I guess we will release digiKam 0.10 this weekend (Gilles?), so Archlinux should have it in their repos quite soon. I already asked tpowa (package maintainer) about update. But I have no problems with using AUR or writing PKGBUILDs myself. I am doing lots of photos lately and I really need good software for managing them so I hope Digikam will work for me soon. Andi, I confirm : 0.10.0 i will prepare pre-0.10.0 packages friday morning. Gilles Ok... let's get it rolling...! ;-) Andi 0.10 from AUR works great, thank you! Jacek, so, i can close this file now ? Gilles Caulier Yes, please close this bug and thanks for help. I will report new bugs when I will use 0.10 more :) |
