[create a duplicate/style on export] > What do you guys think about this? I am not convinced that every export should add a duplicate or style since that would make working with darktable really unpleasant really fast since you can't find anything relevant in the piles of auto-generated things. However, there might already be a hidden feature that could help you. First the deep explanation, short version at the end. darktable stores all the changes to an image in XMP sidecar files. When exporting an image this very XMP data is also embedded into the exported image (provided the file format supports it). So every exported image already contains the settings used to get that image (styles applied during export might be missing, not sure, never tried that). Another feature of darktable is the ability to load random XMP files from other images and apply the settings to the selected image. This is done in the "history stack" module in lighttable using the "load sidecar file" button. Since loading of XMP files is done using libexiv2 which can also load XMP data from images you can "abuse" this button to load the settings used for an exported image and apply them again. TL;DR: Just load the exported image as a sidecar file in the "history stack" module and you get the old settings back. Not exactly what you asked for and not as quick as a style, but it might help with accidentally destroyed/changed history stacks. And it's good for curious people who want to peek over other users' shoulders and see what they did to an image. :) > Regards, > Thomas Tobias
