SUMMARY New picture is badly placed. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. in the Thumbnail view 2. Set an album in Manual item ordering 3. chose a picture inside an album 4. Edit the picture, and Save as a new file 5. Close the editor and go back in the Thumbnail album viewer. OBSERVED RESULT the new picture is NOT located near the original, but somewhere at the top of the album. This is not logical. EXPECTED RESULT The newly Edited picture should be located next to the original picture. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: Windows 10 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Manual sorting is usefull to order the Album in a logical/narrative order.
It will be difficult to find a common denominator here, the new item has not yet undergone manual sorting and the current fallback is the creation date due to this bug 408095. Fallback by filename would definitely be the better choice. Maik
Ok Maik, Before going back to filename sorting, i need to keep current ordering of my album. is there a way to rename the pictures of an album in increasing filename ? (I give the root name and the the program adds an increasing value).
select files-> Rename (F2)-> type: newName-#### Maik
To keep the name: [file]-#### Maik
OK, thank you Maik, the rename menu is indeed very powerful. Good ! I'll easily move to filename ordering . You can close this bug if Digikam team can't improve manual sorting capabilities.
