Description Mikolaj Machowski 2007-06-16 15:28:02 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

It would be great to have some CD/DVD cover generetor.
It should not only create thumbnails but use extensively metadata.

Eg. not only usual thumbnail plus some data (size, weight) but also comments (even without thumbnail!).

hmm, why new? I should check it, but it could be added
as a new page layout on printwizard... wdyt?

A silly (not smart) solution could be added soon, just need to 
find time to work on pw again :/

PW by now can print filename or date, the problem is in how many 
photos can be added on the layout, if too many it (as it is by now) 
adds a ney page....
And i can manage ony one side page by now, but it's a start point.

I think Angelo is right. Better extend possibilities of printwizard.
Comment 6 Mikolaj Machowski 2008-08-21 19:55:12 UTC
Some additional comments:

This doesn't have to be very sophisticated. You need to configure params:

- number of columns
- number of rows
- size in pixels (height, width)
- margin between images
- margin top, bottom, left, right
- caption with "entities" (eg. name, name-without-extension, size-in-kB,
  size-in-MB, maybe some exif ones)
- font
- background color
Comment 7 Angelo Naselli 2009-11-15 17:55:01 UTC
you can now add your own template in printassistant by following TEMPLATE_HOWTO file instructions.
What is missed a caption per page and background color. If you add a logo it's the same task as into bug#164750 (about contact prints).
Comment 8 Angelo Naselli 2010-01-18 23:51:26 UTC
Now you can choose your own page layout by grid size or grid photo size.
I'm thinking to a square cd sized page template though... will see

Mik,

This file still valid using kipi-plugins 2.4 ?
