Description Anders Lund 2020-02-09 11:08:31 UTC 
I try to move albums to a collection on a mounted device. I want to do this using digikam, because I want to maintain the metadata.

When the target album is not visible in the list, this is IMPOSSIBLE. The list does not scroll to allow dropping in the out of view target album.

Ideas: Fix this (scrolling). Create a dialog to handle moving albums or images, available in the context menus. Make it easy to move several albums at once.

A dialog for moving images into an album already exists in the context menu.

Making that dialog work for albums too would be a great help, although it would stille be tedious to move more than one album.
