Version: 2.3.0 (using KDE 4.7.3) OS: Linux When a photo fails to be exported, the program should (optionally) retry automatically instead of waiting for the user to click Continue. Reproducible: Always Expected Results: The program should retry a failed export operation.
It's for PicasaWeb export tool ? Gilles Caulier
(In reply to comment #1) > It's for PicasaWeb export tool ? Yes, it is. The reason I would like to see this future is the following: Last night I selected 2261 pictures to upload them to PicasaWeb and went to bed. When I checked this morning, the export had stopped at file #139 and the Exporter was waiting for me to click Continue... In my opinion, in such cases the Exporter should try a few times and if it keeps failing, continue automatically with the next file. When the end of the list is reached the user should be notified of any missed files. Ray
WARNING : with digiKam 6.0.0 and later, we will not support kipi interface anymore. All tools are now located in digiKam core as well for a plan to provide a more power-full integration with Batch Queue Manager and to be able to export a workflow on a web-service. All export tools are now available everywhere : album view, Image editor, Light table, and Showfoto. Previously, only album view from digiKam core was able to deal with export tools through libkipi. All export tools are now located here : https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/utilities/assistants/webservices All export tools use now a dedicated interface to communicate with the application : - digiKam (database) : https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/libs/database/utils/ifaces/dbinfoiface.h - Showfoto (files metadata) : https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/utilities/assistants/common/dmetainfoiface.h There is not direct use of digiKam database for compatibility with Showfoto. We plan later to provide a dynamic loading of export tools using a plugins mechanism. This will reduce overloading of the internal core libraries. A dedicated devel branch have been created for that, but it's not yet complete: https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/?h=development/dplugins But take a care, digiKam export tools as plugins will not be shared with another external application. API will still private and only shared between Showfoto and digiKam core. The experience with libkipi was bad and complex to maintain/extend in time. Gilles Caulier
