misconception present. "importing" in dt only involves adding an existing file to the database, library.db. It does not involve moving a file from its present location to another location, ie: sd card to local disk. copy or move your images from camers/sd card/... to a physical drive and then import to dt. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to [email protected]
