In the Geolocation Editor the Display-bookmarked-positions-on-the-map button doesn't work. I created some bookmarks in Marble, opened digiKam, called the Geolocation Editor, moved the map to the region where I created the bookmarks and clicked that button but nothing happens. Did I get something wrong, is it a bug or is the function simply not implemented yet?
There are several problems. DigiKam actually has its own bookmark management which works for the Marble map and Google map. However, the function to edit the bookmarks requires a complete KDE in the background with DBus support. Works here for example without an AppImage under openSUSE with no problems. On the other hand, Marble has his own bookmark management. This allows you to set bookmarks via the context menu in digiKam and are also displayed in Marble. But we do not show these Marble bookmarks. We could switch to the Marble bookmarks, but we have no bookmarks in the Google map. I vote for implementing the bookmark management without KBookmarks. Maik
yes, me too. KBookmark is again another run time puzzle for a simple function to provide, which is not very well portable. Note : Perhaps Marble bookmark can be/have been improved recently. I know that Marble team work hard to provide a real framework with better cmake support. AppImage bundle use an older version of Marble currently. It's perhaps time to check the new implementation.

Maik, >On the other hand, Marble has his own bookmark management. >This allows you to set bookmarks via the context menu in digiKam >and are also displayed in Marble. I tested this, created a bookmark in digiKam and then took a look into Marble. Indeed!!! The bookmark was there - but all my others were gone!!!! Wonderful function! Seems first thing to do for me is to put a warning in the doc. >I vote for implementing the bookmark management without KBookmarks. and Gilles: >yes, me too Well, at least Marble has a bookmark management and digiKam not. And without that the whole thing is useless IMHO. >It's perhaps time to check the new implementation. Very good idea I would think under this circumstances. Could save us a lot of work if they did something good. At least the bookmark management is not too bad.

Any updates on that? Is it possible to install the KDE dependencies to get the old editable bookmarkmenu back, and if yes which packages do we have to install? Or is it possible to edit the file where the bookmarks are saved manually? Right now, the "Edit Bookmarks" dropdown entry just does NOTHING.
Gilles, did you already check the new implementation or even put it into the AppImage bundle?
Hi Wolfgang, I currently try to use new Marble version with digiKam, with native Linux Environnent and with AppImage bundle. There are some technical problems. Typically, the bundle use an old version of Marble, released one year ago. Using last implementation, introduce linking problem and serious crashes. I think the port to pure KF5 framework of Marble is not yet complete or badly done. I hope this situation will improved soon, as i see some message about in kde core mailing list. After that, the goal is to drop KBookmark support in digiKam and to use Marble bookmark instead. I don't yet checked the Marble API and i hope that all will be suitable as we need for digiKam. Else, another feedback need to be done with Marble team to adjust public API. Voilà the current situation of my investigations. Gilles
The old bookmark administration works here under openSUSE without problems. But it requires a working KF5 desktop. Maik
Which version of marble/kbookmarks do you have installed? I'm running KDE Neon, so KF5 desktop is avalible here.
