Diagshow, Table-view ???

What do you mean exactly ? Be more explicit please...

gilles Caulier

I am sorry for beeing too short.
Of course I mean the diashow, which is provided in the main menu.
That is the only reason, why I put my wish to the table-view.
where it would be better for you?

The Diashow can be startet with F9, ALT+F9 or SHIFT+F9.
SHIFT+F9 starts the show with all albums and all subfolders.
A great thing!
But with more than 50000 Pictures it would boring you.
So I wish to have the possibillity to show all pictures in a random order.
You would not know, which comes next time and have a little surprise.
This option you  do not find in other products.
But while having all informations in a database, it would be possible to have this feature in digiKam?
It would be great and I hope other user may have the same wish.
Thank you für your support.

Do you try the presentation tool instead ?

Gilles Caulier

That is not the same and changes by addition of a new Picture are not  made automatically in the presentation.
By the way -the random access I did not find there too.

But you must answer aditionally my wish.
If it is possibel, please add the feature, if not... it's fine:-)
Thank you for your time and have a nice Weekend.

Presentation : option "Shuffle Images" == random ?

Right : Slideshow do not have a random option.

Nghia,

The assigned email is to post as CC all comments from digiKam bugzilla to a mailing list where all developers are registered. If you change this settings, we will become blinded at history changes. Use the CC List settings on the top/right corner instead.

Gilles

Sorry, my bad. I thought it was to assign the job.

By the way, I have add an option to show images in random order. The images are suffled at the beginning at each slideshow. Is it ok to you or you need the order of showing images is changed at each image during slideshow?

Nghia

yes, it's random...

To compare, try Presentation tool which has also this feature:
