In pseudo-slideshow mode I described above all shortcuts are working (including Delete ;). I hope in near future we will have color labels for workflow control (while tags and ratings are better for permanent organization imo) (In reply to comment #1) Thanks. It works, but > > 1.

And it is sloooow. 2sec for change from one image to the next (on 2.4GHz C2D P8600), 4 bilion clock tick for change 1.5 Mpix monitor. As my step 4. it could be precompiled version of the next image somewhere in the memory, with 32 bits per pixel it is 6MB, two possible version for zoomed and full image 12MB, and 10 images precompiled for next and previous direction is x20 so whole is 240MB - not too much. I understand, it is wish item for long time to fulfill, but I stress speed is crucial, if digiKam wants to be working environment and not only sophisticated image cataloger. > > 3. Marking images.

And mark - review marking - action, is very effective, together with browsing speed, I pass through image set with some condition in mind i.e. is bad - delete it, is dark - add light a bit, is red(blue) - change WB, etc., compare images and mark which fulfill condition, review selection and when I am satisfied with selection start action, the selection could by set for your batch engine. Immediate action i.e. delete as you said is not desirable because I can make mistake. I change mind in review phase many times. For me this is almost killer feature, together with the speed viewing. Lertimir, This entry still valid with digiKam 2.x serie ? Gilles Caulier Lertimir, This entry still valid with digiKam 3.5.0 ? Gilles Caulier I supported this bug in the past. So I reviewd it today. My opinion / experience with version 3.4 (Michiel Wittkampf) : > > 1. Fullscreen in view mode > > 2. Switching between "zoom in/full image". Keep zoom and viewport position between images. Both work good. Supurb! Sidenotes: - keyboard shortcut for "zoom in/full image" seems changed. It is now: Ctrl-, - it is (now) possible to change fullscreen-mode in the settings. One can include 'hide toolbars', 'hide sidebars' and 'turn off thumbnails'. So pushing the button 'fullscreen-mode' changes all at once. (There is one side-effect in Ubuntu with unity: it is difficult to find how to leave the fullscreen-mode.) - i have tested the functionality. But I did not use it enough the last year to comment on the current speed. Speed is important. It seems far beter then described above. Request for improvement: It would be very handy it would be easy to find *and* to set al the settings more easily. This includes the settings: 1) turn on/off fullscreen mode 2) set or include 'hide toolbars', 'hide sidebars' and 'turn off thumbnails' in fullscreen mode 3) turn on/off "Use real images for embedded preview". In order to switch between speed and details. A proposal: a dedicated userinterface like 'light table'? For example two different modes in the light table: 'side-by-side' and 'switching'? > > 3. Marking images. The new color-marking is supurb as temporary marking tool. Thanks! This way Digikam is becomming a much better workflow tool. Thanks a lot for the enormous effort! New digiKam 4.11.0 is available with official PKG installer for OSX. https://www.digikam.org/node/740 Can you reproduce the problem with this release ? Gilles Caulier This problem is not reproducible using last digiKam 5.0.0. I close this file now. Don't hesitate to re-open if necessary. Gilles Caulier |
