Description Chris W 2022-12-11 16:14:28 UTC 
SUMMARY
Looks like there's room for improvement of the "Cancel" button when a user wants to cancel the import of images.  It doesn't cancel when clicking Cancel.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open digiKam (7.8) and choose Import > Add images...
2. Select a folder, then Download all
3. While the process is running, try to cancel it.

OBSERVED RESULT
The import process keeps running.

EXPECTED RESULT
Clicking the Cancel button halts the import process.

In digiKam-8.0.0 the import process has been revised, Cancel works as expected. I'm still testing it with digiKam-7.9.0, but I think it works there too.

You're correct, I just tested it in 7.9 and it works fine - I didn't realize my version was out-of-date until submitting this bug.  Thanks!  Looks like we should close this as resolved.
