Version: 2.0.0 (using KDE 4.6.2) OS: Linux User should have the option to make recents tags menu kept between 2 sessions of digikom. It should also be possible to have more than 10 (?) entry there if he wants to. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: open digikam, assign some tag, check recently assigned tag close digikam re open, check recently assigned tag Actual Results: empty menu Expected Results: should be possible to recover same recents tags
This information must be stored in DB between session. But it's not already the case Marcel ? Gilles Caulier
Other question ? When the list must be cleared ? An action from user in contextual menu ? Gilles Caulier
AMHA * resetting between session could be an option * manually clearing menu should be available in context menu as gilles said.
No, it's not in the database. I would suggest to store it in the settings file.
bug still valid in 2.2.0/4.6.5
Julien, It still valid using digiKam 2.4 ? Gilles Caulier
Hello Gilles, sorry unable to test for now as there is no update in ppa and it seems Philipp will not provide them for ubuntu natty/11.04. I delayed my update to 11.10 because of gnome3/unity polemic and some failed upgrade reports. Not sure when I will be able to test. If someone else can give feedback, I'll give mine as soon as I can but not probably before one week, so I can I have time to manage a smooth upgrade or change distribution if not happy with latest ubuntu.
NOK. tested today with digikam 2.5.0/kde 4.6.5 from Philips' PPA
NOK ? Not okay for you ?
yes, not ok. not working. after tagging few pictures, restarted digikam, empty context menu.
Git commit 31fb43e49ac8b938c2d41a00e0ffb065868d94c1 by Andi Clemens. Committed on 22/04/2012 at 16:12. Pushed by aclemens into branch 'master'. Preserve recently assigned / used tags This commit contains a dirty hack, because writeSettings() is called every time a tag was added / removed to an image. This is currently needed because the destructor of the AlbumDB object is never called. Setting a breakpoint in its destructor shows that it never reaches the code. Marcel, is this a problem, besides possibly having a memory leak here?

I also noticed that assigning tags doesn't work at all for me, I get the info "writing metadata" and it never closes this background task. When I close digiKam, I need to explicitly kill the background task! Is writing of metadata currently broken? Andi

There is a bug report for this. I have not yet been able to reproduce the problem, it works for me
updated to 2.6.0/ubuntu ppa. short test: start digikam, assign a tag, quit, restart, check menu => working. will add comments if I find it not working in coming weeks. Thanks.
