Description Nigel Aves 2020-02-21 01:40:30 UTC

I'm very new to digiKam. The problem I am having is that when I'm setting up the filters in batch manger I have no clue as to how the final result will look without having to run the manager and produce a new image.

There is probably not enough screen real estate to do this in current window, but if a "Preview" button was added and the image displayed in a separate window (Before / After toggle), that would help cut down on the in and out of Batch Manager, find photograph, view it ..... Fewer the mouse clicks better the work flow!

An alternative to that idea would be the ability in Image Editor to create and save as a "Workflow" as the changes you need for converting from RAW to XXX or changes to existing image files.
