Description Thomas Arend 2013-04-22 06:41:39 UTC 
digiKam
Version 3.1.0
Unter KDE 4.10.2 "release 556"

when importing pictures the thumbnail preview window is not updated. F5 or "Albun aktualisieren" does not work.

Work around: Restart digikam.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Delete picture
2. Click on picture again

or 

1. Import picture
2. Go to folder where the pictures should be. You will see no pictures.
3. Restart digikam an pictures a shown in preview / thumbnail window.


Expected Results:  
1. Picture should be deleted from preview when delete from disk.
2. Pictures should be shown after importing as in previous releases.
3. F5 should reread disk.


Even if a restart is not to complicated I would not granted this as minor error.

I use the preview the remove unneeded picture. It is not helpful when they stay in the preview window and I have to restart the software several times.

Thomas,

Not reproducible here using current implementation from git/master.

This problem still valid using last digiKam 4.2.0 ?

Hello,

I can't reproduce this behavior in the current version  digikam-4.2.0-16.9.x86_64.

After several updates it works fine and fast.
