Description Daniel Hahler 2005-10-02 18:15:58 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I've moved the files from my initial folder /home/user/Pictures to some global directory (/mnt/data/..). I've edited /home/user/.kde/share/config/kimdaba/configfile to reflect the new path.

The images (and the new ones there) have been detected and imported.

But I cannot use the right-mouse-button menu in the thumbnail viewer anymore to "Configure images one at a time" or "Configure All Images Simultaneously" when I've marked/selected some images. It's greyed out.
However, if no images are selected (not even one), I have "Configure Images One at a Time" available.
Comment 1 Daniel Hahler 2005-10-04 23:53:10 UTC
This has probably nothing to do with having moved the messages, but with upgrading to 2.1 (some days before).

Eugen described this bug on the mailing list this way (Message-ID: <433AAC10.20703@pu-pm.univ-fcomte.fr>):

In the thumbnails view, when I press on a thumbnail it opens the view window.  So, in the thumbnails window, when I want to select several images, I press somewhere (not on a thumbnail) in order to deselect any selection.  Afterwards, I press on a space between two images and drag the mouse in order to select the desired rectangle.  After that, pressing the mouse right button opens the context menu but "Configure All Images Simultaneously" is grayed, which is a bug (IMO).

Yes, indeed. I have not tried this. It works here, too.

I was selecting using left-click and mark the images with the selection 
rectangle.

When reading this, I've just tried holding ctrl while drawing a selection 
rectangle to select the images and this gives "Configure images one at a 
time" at least.

Another strange thing is: selecting with the "rectangle" (and without holding 
ctrl) and using ctrl after that on one image of the selection afterwards to 
de-select and select this image (out of the whole selection), makes both 
Configure-options in the RMB available. And this affects all selected images.

I'm using KDE 3.5beta1. Might there be a bug with the Qt element being used 
here?

We should probably discuss this on the bug's comments, shouldn't we? If so, 
please paste my observations with your answer.
Comment 3 Lars Ivar Igesund 2005-11-04 19:57:35 UTC
There might be two bugs here, and possibly related.

I've never used Kimdaba before, so I had high expectations after reading much positive about it. I apt-got version 2.1 (in Kubuntu 5.10 using KDE 3.5 Beta2), loaded my 3700 images and planned to start configuring them. I noticed the bug above after a while, but my problems materialized this way: I entered a folder, chose all pictures using Ctrl+a, right clicked and was able to choose "Configure all images simultaneously". But the configure dialog didn't show my images! Instead there was one image (not mine) of image paper copies on a table, and mine were nowhere to be found. Choosing only one image, I was able to configure it as expected.

What I'm thinking, is that I think there has been som KDirLister bug in the 3.5 betas. After all, both these problems seems to be related to not getting a correct listing of the files.
Comment 4 Daniel Hahler 2005-11-04 21:52:03 UTC
Lars, "Configure all images simultaneously" configures all (selected) images simultaneously. Therefor there's just a pseudo-image shown and what you set will be set for all selected images.
Not a bug.
Comment 5 Jesper Pedersen 2006-01-14 18:57:12 UTC
This seems to be a bug introduced by some vendors.
Anyhow. I've completely rewritten the thumbnail viewer, not to use the broken QIconView code anymore, so this should work now
Comment 6 Richard Bos 2006-01-14 21:46:35 UTC
Nice to see that my bug has been solved about 2 hours ago.  That's
a negative patch time score (-2 hours)!

I tool the challenge to build from source, but that does not seem to
work. I used this page:
http://ktown.kde.org/kimdaba/download-svn.htm

But if I'm not mistaken kimdabe has been renamed to kphotobook is that
correct?
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/extragear/graphics/kphotoalbum/

If so I fail to compile it.  I get there is nothing to do for most directories
and it fails in:
Making all in blue
make[4]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/kimdaba/kphotoalbum/kphotoalbum/themes/blue'
make[4]: *** Geen regel voor aanmaken doel `kphotoalbum.theme', nodig voor `all-am'.  Stop.


That means no rule for target kphotoalbum.theme
When I remove the target (SUBDIR) directory themes the build commences.

Comment 7 Jesper K. Pedersen 2006-01-14 21:49:18 UTC
Actually you got me on a reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal bad time, I'm renaming as we 
speak, so I suggest you either try one of the patches, or try again tomorrow.

Cheers
Jesper.

OK things should be working in svn directory kphotoalbum now.

Enjoy

Comment 9 Richard Bos 2006-01-16 20:52:33 UTC
I'm not sure whether I should report the compile problem here, but okay:
I get this after checkout:

CII  -MT optionsdialog.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/optionsdialog.Tpo" -c -o optionsdialog.o optionsdialog.cpp; \
then mv -f ".deps/optionsdialog.Tpo" ".deps/optionsdialog.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/optionsdialog.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
optionsdialog.cpp: In member function ‘virtual void OptionsDialog::show()’:
optionsdialog.cpp:412: error: ‘_delayLoadingPlugins’ was not declared in this scope
make[3]: *** [optionsdialog.o] Fout 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/kimdaba/KPhotoAlbum-src/kphotoalbum

Is this a source problem or a problem on my site?  I'm running kde-3.5
