I'm was getting the same problem as IanMac using version 5.8 Have updated to 5.9 beta, still get the same problem, can you advise? Thanks, Rob
On the Layout selection panel, if I select 10x15cm (3 photos) it will display there are 5 pages as I have selected 14 photos. So I click next, to the caption settings, then next again to crop and rotate photos. I then click back twice to go back to layout selection. This time both the 10x15cm layout (which I had selected) is selected. But this time, the 6x9cm layout (1st option) is also selected. It also states that there are 2 pages which is the correct number for the 6x9cm layout, rather than 5 pages for the layout had selected.
I can not reproduce the main problem from comment 0. Of course, if you switch from landscape to portrait in the page settings, the default layout is no longer available and the first one is selected. If you selec are e.g. (10x15 1 photo), this also remains selected because available in both orientations. Can you please test it again? The other thing with the back button and the double selection I can confirm and will be fixed. Maik

Sorry, I misread the original bug report and comment 0. It sounded like the problem I had but now I'm thinking it maybe different. I didn't want to submit a new bug report for something that had been submitted before. You are right, I can't reproduce comment 0. So what happens for me is that no matter what option I select for the layout, it always prints (or creates a pdf) as the first option and not the page layout I select. My feeling is that with having both options selected (when going back) maybe the cause of this, which is what you just fixed. If I change the page orientation, the page layout selected changes to the first option. Even if I had it selected as custom or 10x15. Are you saying that if I had selected 10x15 that it should stay selected if I change the page orientation? Would I have to wait for a new beta build of 5.9 for this fix?
If you are using a custom photo layout, this is actually always reset to the first entry in the list, it is programmed in the code. Why can not I tell you at the moment which side effect it might otherwise have. I will check it. Maik
Sorry for the delay in replying. I had tried to build digikam myself and installing all the dependencies I messed up my linux installation. I have installed the new build of 5.9 and it fixed my the problem. Thanks for being so quick with it.
