I'm having some issues using Groups: I have some Raw and Jpg files in my "root" album called Pictures. The images there are grouped using "Select all" -> "Group by Type". When I import some Files (again Raw and corresponding Jpg) to a subfolder of Pictures, only The Jpg files are shown in the digikam thumbnails view. Expected result: Raw and Jpg files are visible in digikam, Grouping should be possible. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Group raw and jpg files in root album using "Group by type" from the context menu 2. Import raw and jpg files to a subfolder of the root album 3. Actual Results: Images are imported to filesystem but only the Jpg files are shown in digikam. Expected Results: Raw and Jpg files are visible in digikam, Grouping should be possible independently from the root folder. Normally my images are located on a NFS network share but for reproducing I used a Collection on my local harddisk.
Created attachment 101347 [details] removeGrouping.patch We copy the image informations from the DB for new identical images. I vote that we remove the grouping information for copied or identical new images. Maik
I see this patch at the moment as best solution. Also for the Bug 307332. Maik
