The existing collection options for ISO, aperture, etc., have always been completely useless to me because the form of a Darktable collection query effectively restricts these options to queries on exact values -- one cannot make queries such as "ISO greater than 400."
I assume there is no straightforward way of establishing the same kind of scripting structure for collection options as exists now for lighttable modules? This would certainly make it easier to support collection options that have limited use cases, without having to overpopulate the list in everyone's collection module. -- August Schwerdfeger aug...@schwerdfeger.name On Sat, Aug 5, 2017 at 2:39 AM, Marcial Gómez Martín <mmg...@posteo.net> wrote: > I use to take pictures of paintings and other stuff in order to catalogue > and archive them.
