Unfortunately I didn't find a hint for this fact in the manual. Nor a
list of supported file formats in lighttable view-mode.
After Terries hint, however, I "imported" png-files successfully.
You can also import

Yeah, You're right, I wasn't aware of this fact. Maybe someone is able
to use/run or adapt an according LUA-script to deliver such ability of
pseudo-dynamically loading changed pics in the background.

To be honest- I think it is reasonable not to catch the stars,
so-to-say. Certainly, I'm not a beginners. But working with LUA-script
seems to be above my capabilities.
It's a pitty!
Thanks for your help!

Keep in mind that lighttable isn't a real time view onto your diskdrive,
so unless you reimport your directory after exporting png files there
these won't appear in lighttable view.
You can use lua to generate a export, import, group with raw file
afterwards script to achieve this (there's reusable code in

Dear all:
DT offers different formats for importing and exporting pics.
IMPORT:
https://www.darktable.org/usermanual/en/overview/supported-file-formats/
<https://www.darktable.org/usermanual/en/overview/supported-file-formats/>
EXPORT: https://darktable.gitlab.io/doc/en/exporting_images.html
<https://darktable.gitlab.io/doc/en/exporting_images.html>
As much as I found, dt shows in lighttable "only" RAW-formats (if I
activate to _import_ JPG, I see these files, in lighttable, too).
However: In my workflow, I produce lossless(!!) PNG, whereas dt is
supposed to export only lossy(??) JPG??
See: <https://darktable.gitlab.io/doc/en/exporting_images.html
<https://darktable.gitlab.io/doc/en/exporting_images.html>>
My aim would be:
- working on RAW-images in lighttable,
- export these as PNG and
- see all pics at the time(!!) within a directory.
Lighttable should be for overviews and comparison, I guess. This way, I
could see original RAW _and_ resulting pics version simultaneously.
- I can't find a button to see PNG-format in lighttable.
- What do I miss?
- Is my workflow wrong?
- Are there better procedures or, maybe s.th <http://s.th>. as Best
Practice e.g.?
Thank you for tips
Axel
