Version: (using KDE 3.5.9) Installed from: SuSE RPMs Bug since there is data loss. Run gwenview, run gimp. Rotate image in gwenview (*), load image in gimp, make some changes. Save in gimp. Jump to next image in gwenview. Get back -- the image is in state from point (*).
This bug does not apply to Gwenview 2 because it does not automatically save changes. I have no time to work on Gwenview 1 anymore, so this bug won't be fixed, sorry.
> Gwenview 2 does not automatically save changes You mean, if I have to rotate 100 images, I have to save each one of them? This is major drawback -- it is better to have this feature, and if anyone is scared, revert (feature) as well. Otherwise it will be huge loss in productivity.
No: when you rotate an image, Gwenview shows a "save bar" indicating that an image has been changed and let you go to another image without automatically saving it. If you rotate more than one image, the save bar will contain a "save all" button, which will let you save all your changes in one click. You will also be offered to save all your changes when leaving Gwenview. See: http://agateau.wordpress.com/2007/07/15/you-have-unsaved-changes/
1) sounds great! :-) 2) I am sorry in advance for using older version, but when I look at the screenshots I am not sure if the clash cannot occur anymore Example: Run gwenview, run gimp. Rotate image in gwenview load image in gimp, make some changes. Save in gimp. switch to gwenview. Save in gwenview (*) (*) what will happen here? -- if there is no mechanism to check external changes the problem is still there, if there is mechanism for this too I can only say "great for the second time :-)"
You are right, that's still a problem, even if it's not as bad as before because Gwenview does not save behind your back anymore. Unfortunately we are in feature and string freeze right now, so I won't be able to implement this for KDE4.1.
Aurelien, thank you for the answer -- so I reopen this report, because it is a bit different, but still valid issue.
The problem described in comment #4 still exists in KDE SC 4.8 RC1.
Is this still valid for Gwenview 4.10 or later?
