Bug ID: 435909
Summary: Dragging files onto themselves should be ignored, and
not asked for overwrite/rename
Product: digikam
Version: 7.2.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Albums-IconView
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
see $SUBJECT
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open any folder
2. select some images
3. start dragging (not ctrl-drag)
4. release onto same folder
OBSERVED RESULT
dialog pops up asking if we want to rename or ovewrite
EXPECTED RESULT
no dialog. I wanted to move the images, this should be ignored if the target is
the same folder/album because the exact same files are already there.
If ctrl-drag is used and released on the same folder/album, it is debatable
whether the user should be asked if s?he wants to create duplicates. I think
no, in 99% of all cases. There are other options for rare cases where it makes
sense to duplicate files (Ctrl-C + Ctrl-V, versioning, etc). Maybe we can add a
checkbox "[x] Don't ask again when target and source are identical" to the
dialog, and a settings option?
Using Digikam appimage with KDE Neon and all available updates applied.
