2. Select "New Advanced Search..." or "Edit Current Search..."
3. On the "Album" area, click on the "Albums" and then of the Albums tree, right-click to select an album

I don't understand the bug report. Only saved advanced searches have an entry for editing, saved quick text searches don't.
But you don't seem to see a context menu in the album tree view either? Are you using Wayland? If the problem isn't present in the AppImage, it might not be a digiKam problem.

Ok, strange, now I understand it, the album selector in the advanced search itself. Yes, in the AppImage it has a context menu, in my native Qt6 digiKam version it doesn't.

workaround for a missing context menu event in Qt-6.8.0
This is a strange behavior of the QTreeView in a QComboBox starting
with Qt-6.8.0, we do not receive a context menu event, and we
cannot create a custom context menu via signal/slot.

Comment 4 Maik Qualmann 2024-11-18 20:16:06 UTC

A context menu is now available again with Qt-6.8.0, the reason it does not appear in our bundles is because we are still using Qt-6.7.x there.
I see 2 reports in the Qt bug tracker üossible related to this problem, it is supposed to be a regression in Qt-6.8.0 and is fixed in Qt-6.8.1. I will test it when I have such a Qt version available.
