Version: 2.0.0 (using KDE 4.5.90) OS: Linux This is a usability suggestion for the sidebar displaying different versions of an image. At the moment, one has to use the overlay eye icon to display different versions of an image. Wouldn't it be simpler and easier to work with to just display the corresponding image version when a thumbnail in the image history is clicked? That would make comparing the different versions really simple. Reproducible: Always OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.35-22-generic Compiler: cc
Yes, that's intended feature, it's just a bit broken now ;) We'll fix that.
I was a bit reluctant at first: When you click and the image is selected, the right sidebar will change as well. If it's a "related" image, the current image will go down, and the newly selected image will take the place under "image history". At least in combined mode, in the tree or list mode there is not much difference indeed. So yes, we should add that. There is an exception list in the model, one or two connections needed. Hm, wait: what happens if you are browsing some album or tag, and the clicked image is not currently in this album. We'd need to jump albums. That's all right?
Good question. That's why I dropped the idea of moving all the original images into "originals" folder, because that would create another subalbum and if you'd switch the image in the sidebar, the album would get switched as well (I had it even implemented). Which was unwanted. I'm not sure about the right approach here. I'm thinking about creating some sort of meta-versions-cloud, ie. do some meta collection, which would include images from different albums, but would be represented in one place by one image (the "current") and switching would then be done in place. But one drawback is that you will then have one image in two (or more) places (albums), which is also unwanted I guess. But we could use the same one meta-versions-cloud on all places (in all albums), it is after all still the one versions-cloud. What do you think?
