Hi,
I'm not sure if these have been suggested before, but I'd just like to put
them up for discussion.
1. Rearranging Modules
I don't like how some of the modules are arranged, so I'd like some way to
rearrange them. For instance, I feel that "Exposure" should be put before
"shadows and highlights". One will usually use both, but usually the first
thing one adjusts is the overall exposure, and not shadows and highlights.
If I can shift the modules around, that would be great.
2. Spot Removal
For the "add circular shape" spot removal (I'm not sure if the stable
versions have the option between circular shapes and curve shapes; I'm
referring to the nightlies here), it might be a good idea to show the size
of the "brush", and be able to change the size of it before you click on a
spot to remove it. This is the way healing brushes work in most other photo
editing programs, and it's much easier.
3. "Solo Mode"
In Lightroom, there's an option to enable "solo mode" where all other
modules close when you open one. You can do this manually in Darktable by
closing modules after you are done with them, but it's slow. This is
especially useful if you are editing on a laptop with limited screen real
estate, or if you wish to use only the favourites tab for editing (this is
especially useful if you can rearrange the modules in the favourites tab to
suit your workflow, so you just work your way from top to bottom)
4. More of a bug than feature request
Shortcuts for crop and spot removal are broken. For crop and spot removal,
when you assign shortcuts to "show" the modules, it doesn't switch to the
module as it should. When you press the shortcut to show crop, it just
shows the crop overlay, but you are not at the module itself to change
things like aspect ratio, which makes the shortcut a bit dumb to use.
Similarly, shortcuts for spot removal do not bring you to the module
itself, making it useless.
