I think this behavior have been fixed with recent version. Can you test using last digiKam 1.5.0 ?

Gilles Caulier

Where exactly are you dragging the photos to? It works when dragging a tag from the "Tag filter" oder "caption/tags" bar on the right onto a photo (or a group of selected photos).

I can't remember it worked the other way around...

Gilles,
do you remember if it worked the opposite way?
If so, the bug is still present in SVN.

I just tested all D&D features under my MacBook, with last code from svn trunk: 
The components are listed below:

Tags D&D operations from source to target :
-------------------------------------------

1) => 6) : Don't work : expected result: tag must be applied to whole album items

10) => 6) : Don't work : expected result: tag must be applied to item
10) => 7) : Don't work : expected result: tag must be applied to item

Special actions:

* yes, you can D&D between this view to let's mouse over sidebar button :

1) => 2) : Don't work : expected result: tag must be applied to whole album items
2) => 1) : Don't work : expected result: tag must be applied to whole album items

6) => 7) : Work fine (tag move)
7) => 6) : Work fine (tag move)

1) => 9) : work fine (add items to LT)
2) => 9) : work fine (add items to LT)
6) => 9) : work fine (add items to LT)
7) => 9) : work fine (add items to LT)

1) => 10) : Don't work : expected result: items must be add to list
2) => 10) : Don't work : expected result: items must be add to list
6) => 10) : Don't work : expected result: items must be add to list
7) => 10) : Don't work : expected result: items must be add to list

Unrelevant actions :

3) => 1) : move/copy file operations.
2) => 3) : just impossible to do.
2) => 4) : just impossible to do.
2) => 5) : just impossible to do.

This list can be the content of a new file in svn to exlain D&D operations. It's not complete yet of course. 

What do you think about ?

Gilles Caulier

- dropping an album (1 or 2) somewhere and expecting a result on all contained items is not expected to work, it's simply not implemented - would need to list all contained items

- 3->6, 3->7, 5->6, 5->7 works fine here on Linux, this is basic functionality. Mac issue?

- dropping to any canvas (4, 11, 12): Yes, not implemented. The canvases dont accept drags.

- dragging from any old-style thumb bar (8, 9, 10, _not_ 5): The solution would be to port to model/view toolbar (as I said above, dragging from 5 works for me) Should be possible without too much work.

Marcel,

I remember to have implemented and tested these feature with Qt3/KDE3.

I just compare Qt3 D&D features with Qt4 port (:=)))...

Marcel,

Good question. i will try also under Windows to see...

They don't work for me under Linux! Are you synced with trunk?
Do you work on the GSOC branch (I do not)?

Andi

Note : for me, i tested with trunk code, not GoSC2010 branch

Gilles Caulier

If the above mentioned points really work for Marcel, I#ll use git bisect to find out since when it has stopped to work in trunk.

Ok I just found out that a checkout from March 11, 2010 has 3->6, 3->7, 5->6, 5->7 working.
I'll bisect to find the problem...

Wow, this doesn't make any sense. My test database works fine, my database with my regular images does not!
I can't figure out why... I even replicated the tag structure from my test db, still it doesn't work.
Weird...

It even gets weirder:
It doesn't work properly with my test db as well, only the first three albums in the albumfolder view do work, if I select another album, I can not assign tags when dragging images onto the tagfolderview in caption/tags!

There must be some different problem, it isn't related to D&D I guess.
Every album that I create from now on is NOT able to use D&D as described above, only the old ones.

In the console, I get the following warning:
"Could not find source album of drag"

Have we changed something in the database layout that affects all newly created albums now?

I'm using the branch, but it worked right now also with trunk for me (dragging an item from icon view to caption/tags tag tree view on a newly created tag)

This is tagdragdrop.cpp, line 124. What is albumID when it fails?

The albumID is "6" in this case, and it is the right album (according to the database: "/Labs/advancedrename".

I can't see a difference between old and new albums in the database though, this is why I'm so confused right now.

Marcel, 

am I wrong or is the usage of findTAlbum() in the mentioned line wrong? I drag from a PAlbum, so this method can't work?

Marcel,

that's definitely the error, because the folder that work have a corresponding tagID that fits, e.g. tagID=2 and albumID=2. albumID=6 does not work, because there is no TAlbum with an ID=6.

Yes! It seems to be too much copy-and-pasted from the TAlbum variant ;-)

SVN commit 1198100 by mwiesweg:

Fix PAlbum/TAlbum mismatch.
With tags, we can check if the tag is assigned for the same effect.

Works fine now...

Andi,

Can you create a copy of my list from #3 to a new working file in project subfolder, and update data accordingly ?

Thanks in advance

Gilles

Yes, I can do this... it will take a while before I commit it though, since I'll be offline the next few hours.

Martin,

There are few work on this file. It still valid using digiKam 2.x serie ?

Gilles Caulier

Assign tags works with one or even multiple selected tags, after implementing Tags Manager.
