Created attachment 68041 [details] Showing pictures that are supposed to be sorted by date. Version: 2.4.1 (using KDE 4.7.4) OS: Linux I sort my pictures by date, as I have different cameras. The cameras all have their date/time correctly set up, and time-stamp the photos properly. When I click on an album full of albums, the images that are displayed are NOT in chronological order. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Click on an album full of albums. Note the date of the photos displayed. Actual Results: Photos are not sorted to date. Expected Results: All photos in sub-albums correctly sorted. OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.2.1 Compiler: gcc
I see 14:04, 14:08, 15:07... Looks like ascending order to me?
Look on the left.. .there are albums with photos from the first month, but the photos showing on the top there are from the second month... Looks like Digikam cannot sort purely on photo date stamp, but in stead looks at the album date, and then only sorts the photos within one album. Admittedly, the date of creation of my albums are all over the place, but I don't think that should matter, I did not ask Digikam to sort my albums, I asked it to sort my photos.
You are using the albums-view hence pictures are primarily sorted by album. Sorting albums by date is not possible, see bug 227530. The only option you have is to use another view, you can change them by clicking on the icons on the left of your digikam window. There are some date/time-related views.
I guess we can change this to a wontfix, then. Cheers!
This one has me stumped. As far as I can see, it should work, but does not. Here is the output of the commands you asked for: $ glxinfo | grep GLX_SGIX_fbconfig GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_NV_swap_group, GLX_NV_video_out, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, 2012-02-08 02:39 Wed evert@Aspire4937:~/ $ ldd /usr/lib/libkdeinit4_kwin.so | grep libGL ldd: /usr/lib/libkdeinit4_kwin.so: No such file or directory 2012-02-08 02:40 Wed evert@Aspire4937:~/ $ ldd /usr/lib64/libkdeinit4_kwin.so | grep libGL libGL.so.1 => /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1 (0x00007f8ea950d000) 2012-02-08 02:40 Wed evert@Aspire4937:~/
Sort album by date is possible with digiKam 5.8.0. See menu entry 'View/Sort Albums/By Date' You can also process date sort of item with date view and timeline. Gilles Caulier
