When I group images (select several images -> right click on one of them -> Group -> Group Selected Here), group is created. However when I try to ungroup it (right click on the first group image -> Group -> Ungroup), nothing happens, group still exists after that. Removing from group (right click -> Group -> Remove From Group) works and can be used as a workaround for dismissing the whole group.
I can't reproduce this problem. Do you use a mysql or sqlite database?
I use sqlite.
It's not reproducible here too, with sqlite. Can you look with the fresh 5.8.0 AppImage bundle to see if problem is reproducible ? https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzeiVr-byqt5Y0tIRWVWelRJenM Can you try to create a new account and run digiKAm from a fresh collection, add some items, group and ungroup to see if problem is reproducible ? With original account, do you see any debug trace on the console ? Gilles Caulier
Do you see my previous comment ? Note : pre-release bundles are now available here : https://files.kde.org/digikam/
Sorry for the late reply. It took me a while to run appimage because of some missing libraries. I've tried both digikam-5.7.0 from my distro repository (gentoo) and digikam-5.8.0-20171113012920-x86-64.appimage under new user account with sqlite and a bunch of test images. Ungrouping works there w/o any issues. With my normal account and photos 5.7.0 ungrouping generally wasn't working and I used "Remove from Group" as a workaround - however I remember a few times it worked, so the problem is intermittent. When today I've tried to get debug console output for you, it started working like a charm :) When it works, there's no output. 5.8.0. appimage also works just fine now for my normal account. I guess the ticket can be closed for now. If I have run into this problem again with 5.8.0, I'll collect more details and reopen it.
