The print wizard works OK, only selected photos are printed, with gallery2 export you have to select photos again in export dialog.
I agree the image selection is rubbish. I wont fix it this way tho' as there are other changes that I would like to do that would make this unecessary. That said, I would probably still want to keep the current sytle of interface for manual transfers... hmmmm. I'll give it some thought. If you want an idea of what kind of interface I'm looking to create, have a look at the other gallery bugs :)
how about just adding the feature in the gallery kipi plugin to select more than one tag. this way you could mark tags wich are "foo" and add the tag "bar". that way only pics with both (or more) tags would be exported. additionally there could be an option to say (include pictures of all tags, or include only pictures that have all tags) and let choose. i think this would be a solution that's fast implemented but would work too :)
Any time I spend on this will just delay the Sync plugin. I'd rather focus my efforts there. If you want to write a patch however please feel free!

As a workaround you can copy all selected images (or the result of a query) to a temp-album and export this.
IMHO the approach of the gallery export script is wrong: Instead of showing a complete album and image selector it should only export any currently selected image. It's a task of the application to help the user to select the images. The task of the plugin should only be the export.

Git commit 9dfafd20b0cbe191e879e2c1088ce40a48f0890f by Andrew Goodbody. Committed on 27/03/2012 at 08:30. Pushed by goodbody into branch 'master'. Pre-selection of files for Gallery exporter Replace the call to open a file selection dialogue box to obtain the list of files to upload with a call that simply returns the list of the files that are currently selected in digikam. Also update the button text to reflect the changed behaviour. M +2 -2 galleryexport/gallerywindow.cpp http://commits.kde.org/kipi-plugins/9dfafd20b0cbe191e879e2c1088ce40a48f0890f
