Version: 3.1.0 (using KDE 3.5.8) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux I today started testing kphotoalbum and it took about 12 hours to import my ~70.000 pictures (reading exif data took that long). After import I found out that over 130.000 pics where imported! kphotoalbum just added the .thumbs directorys, some other applications are generating to stort their generated preview pics. I would like to see a configuration option in kphotoalbum to exclude several customable directories from importing.
This would require two steps: 1) adding the settings to the settings dialog 2) using the setting while scanning for images 1) needs to be added to Settings/SettingsData.cpp and Settings/*Page.cpp (depending on which page it should be shown) 2) needs to adapt DB/NewImageFinder.cpp
Created attachment 37322 [details] Added option to set exclude directories by user
litte comment to patch: user can define multiple names of directories to exclude from import by using separator , example = .thumbs,.Thumbnails,my_not_to_import_directory hardcoded options like .,.. are unchanged
Thanks, I'll have a look at it once KPA 4.1 has been released. Cheers Jesper.
