Description kgw 2009-10-17 21:30:04 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

When comparing two images on the light table and (as is unfortunately standard) both images are scaled to fit and the left sidebar with EXIF and IPTC information is closed and if you open that sidebar the left image is rescaled to fit the new size of the splitted view but not the right one. Effectively they now are displayed at different scales.

Hmm I can not confirm this, can you take a screenshot?
Are you using images of different dimensions or orientations?

This time I had to play with the magnification a little bit beforehand (increasing scale once and then down again so that the images fit the window completely) without the sidebars visible) but I managed to reproduce, the only difference is that this time the image on the other side from the recently opened sidebar isn't scaled properly. If you wonder, the left has a scale of 16%, the right one of 13%, 16% was scaled to fit before opening the left sidebar, 13% is the new scale to fit the available space.

I cannot reproduce here either.
Can you reproduce reliably? Does it depend on the size of the two images?
Comment 4 kgw 2009-11-04 13:41:37 UTC
I can reliably reproduce with the method described in my last post. The images have to be fairly large...

Images are really the same size on left and right panel. It's important.

I'm not sure if it's the same issue though I have this behaviour:

I open two images side by side. Images are scaled to fit. I enlarege one of the images to 100% scale, because synchronizing is turned on, I expect the second image to scale on 100% too - though this not happening. I drag the scaled  image to move view, just then the other images scaled and moved in sync.

Also I think when scaling to 100% it would be much better if I it's viewed in center, where commonly is focus,  not in the upper left corner...

This file still valid using last digiKam 3.5.0 ?

As far as my report, yes, the behaviour seems quite erratic for me. Sometimes scale is synced, sometimes not. 

In case of the images of different orientation or size, the sync button is greyed, but sometimes not. I think whole idea of disabling the feature for different sized and oriented image is ill-conceived. - Even for the images of different size, it still make a lot of sense to compare them on 1:1 or other scale.  

Taking it all, the behaviour of sync feature is more or less unpredictable now and even less intuitive then before.

digiKam 7.0.0 stable release is now published:

We need a fresh feedback on this file using this version.

Not reproducible here. Closed.
