Description tuxflo 2016-09-13 19:48:53 UTC 
I'm having some issues using Groups: I have some Raw and Jpg files in my "root" album called Pictures. The images there are grouped using "Select all" -> "Group by Type".
When I import some Files (again Raw and corresponding Jpg) to a subfolder of Pictures, only The Jpg files are shown in the digikam thumbnails view.

Expected result:
Raw and Jpg files are visible in digikam, Grouping should be possible.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Group raw and jpg files in root album using "Group by type" from the context menu
2. Import raw and jpg files to a subfolder of the root album
3.

Actual Results:  
Images are imported to filesystem but only the Jpg files are shown in digikam.

Expected Results:  
Raw and Jpg files are visible in digikam, Grouping should be possible independently from the root folder.

Normally my images are located on a NFS network share but for reproducing I used a Collection on my local harddisk.

We copy the image informations from the DB for new identical images. I vote that we remove the grouping information for copied or identical new images.

I see this patch at the moment as best solution. Also for the Bug 307332.
