Description Michal Thoma 2009-07-26 23:18:47 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I would like to have possibilty to sort images in batch queue manager. Right now the images in queue are sorted according to order in which it was put in queue. This is not very comfortable to use so some possiblity for changing order of images would come handy.

It's very useful for example when exporting images for slideshow - I fix order in batch queue manager and using the rename function to hardcode this order in to the image file name.

Any volunteer to implement a model to BQM QueueListView class ?

Yes. I would like to volunteer. What are the possible ways you suggest, in which I can implement a model to BQM QueueListView class ?
Comment 3 caulier.gilles 2014-04-14 15:02:27 UTC 
It can be simple.

Look like this view is based on standard Qt listview.There is nothing special about model-view here in digiKam code. We use model provided by parent class.

You must write a model class as it's already do in other list view digiKam code where a sort is available, as for ex, AlbumTreeView which support sort stuff (recently improved by Mohamed through this bug :

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=227530

Look code from patch to get inspiration, and check current implementation to see how finally it's coded.

Mohamed,

Form origianl whish, we can read : "...some possiblity for changing order of images..."

Are you sure that your last commit are enough to solve this file ? List is now sort following filenames in acsending order. User cannot change order manually in this list.

Comment 8 Mohamed 2014-09-03 22:10:01 UTC 
Mr Gilles,

Try to click on the column header you want to sort by it -File name for example-, The order will toggle

Thanks.
Comment 9 caulier.gilles 2014-09-04 05:43:02 UTC 
yes i know, but it think Michal want a free order of list contents, as you can re-order items as he want...

I close the file. We will see Michal feedback...
