Maud, For starters, you CAN bring all your development work across from Lightroom. I wrote a blog post about it here: http://brucewilliamsphotography.com/2017/01/darktable-pt-1/ I did originally plan to write a follow up piece, but never got around to it. There is one thing I've noticed though, which is not mentioned in that blog post. If you see thumbnails in darktable which are completely black, check to see if you applied a Tone Curve in LR. That one partiuclar module does not seem to always translate well (or at least, it hasn't in my experience). If you followed the steps in my blog post, and you've imported your images to darktable, and you see those black thumbnails, pull up the History panel. It will show you the steps that were performed in Lightroom. Simply jump back to the history state PRIOR to the Tone Curve, and your image will magically reappear!
