Description jgoerzen 2010-05-29 02:16:06 UTC 
Version:           1.2.0 (using KDE 4.3.4) 
OS:                Linux

I was browsing photos in an album.  Hovering over one would show what tags it has.  I wanted to see all images with one of the tags, so I switched to the tags view on the left and selected that tag.  It showed images from only 2 albums, despite the presence of that tag all over the place in many other albums.  Viewing one such album and using the tag filter on the right produced expected results.

With digikam closed, I examined the digikam4.db and everything seems to be in order; the images in question do have approprate entries in the ImageTags table.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Every single attempt to view images with that tag produces too few results.



OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-3-amd64

After it sat for a few minutes while I sent in this bug report, I went back to the same screen.  The scrollbar now indicated many more items present, but there were significant display oddities.

I could scroll down through the list, and there would be places where there were several screenfulls of empty white.  I don't just mean that the thumbnails didn't render yet.  It was completely empty at those spots.  No borders for photos, nothing.  Yet other places it worked fine.  Sometimes I scrolled and it would just have corruption where the thumbnails go.

This doesn't happen at all in the album view.

CPU is a Core 2 Quad Q9550 so it's not as if it's under-powered here.

Also of note: this is my first attempt runing digikam on 64-bit Linux.  I had used it on 32-bit for many years.  I tar'd up the database and albums dir before reinstalling my system, and untarred both to the same precise filesystem location afterwords.

I can partially confirm this issue with the current SVN version.

Partially means: No images shown at all here. Not even a single one.
Comment 4 caulier.gilles 2010-05-29 09:30:06 UTC 
run digiKam in the console and look if error messages appears.

Comment 5 Simon 2010-05-29 09:34:37 UTC 
No messages here. (digikam run with env_svn.sh)
Comment 6 caulier.gilles 2010-05-29 09:36:31 UTC 
Open a console and run "digikam" program...

What's your shell script do exactly ?

Mysteriously, it has now gone back to its original behavior of showing just a few photos.  I rebuilt all thumbnails thinking that might fix it -- it didn't.  But it still shows a bit of oddness as the scrollbar scrolls past the end of the photos.  I'm attaching a screenshot of that at least.

Can you reproduce the problem with this release ?

With digiKam 5.0.0  this problem is not reproducible.
I close this file now. Don't hesitate to re-open if necessary.
