Description Maik Qualmann 2014-11-02 18:17:06 UTC
Images are imported with rating == -1 (no rating). If the rating changed and then deleted, is the rating == 0. This images cannot be selected on the left sidebar.

Reproducible: Always

Hi all,

I don't mind implementing this patch, But it will add the "0 Rating" to digikam, So I think digikam will need more work to implement the "0 Rating" everywhere.

But there is another way: We can simply change the "0 rated images" into "-1 rated images" so we can search for "images without rating" from the labels tree view.

Thanks,
Mohamed Anwer

Much simpler.

Mr Gilles, 

I think the last patch is the simplest solution for the problem as I mentioned in my previous comment, It doesn't need to add the "0 Rating" to digiKam anyway.

Well, if patch is acceptable for you, feel free to apply it to git/master.

Q : does others part of digiKam which play with rating will be affected by this change ? For example, rating filter, rating assignment from Captions&Tags, rating from Advanced Search tool...

Hi, 

is no rating selected, adds the patch "albumlabelstreeview2.patch" both ratings to list (0 and -1). It works fine for me.

Thanks

In digikam 4.4.0, there is already a "0 rating". Not in the "Labels" side view, but in "Advanced Search":

The options for "Rating" are:
  - (No value selected)   - meaning: ignore rating at all
  - No rating assigned    - meaning: no rating set
  - 0 stars                       - meaning: rating set to value 0
  - 1 star
  - 2 stars
  - 3 stars
  - 4 stars
  - 5 stars

The options "No rating assigned" and "0 stars" give different search results on my system.

I can move pictures from the "No rating" group to the "0 star rating" group with the keyboard shortcut "CTRL + 0".

Importing files from SD-card seems to set a small default XMP-section with "rating = 0". While importing via Copy&Paste seems to leave the image as is (no metadata -> no rating).

You are right but from your point of view, What I meant is when you hover over a photo,  You can see the rating stars indicating the rating of this photo,

Can you differentiate between the (unrated) photo and the (0 rated) photo ? , No you can't.

That's what I mean by implementing the 0 rating, Even if it already exists in some parts of the code, But the user can't feel it, unless he use the advanced search window.

If we would implement this, I suggest adding another icon beside the rating stars to (Un-rate) the photo, Of course we must ask the community about this.

There are some plans in my head dedicated to digiKam, But I'm waiting until I finish my final exams.
