Re: [darktable-user] How to set export file name preference

[Volker Lenhardt]

Hi and Happy Easter to all of you.

I want to thank thokster for his very good advice (in a personal 
conversation) that helped to clear my brains. Now that I reorganize my 
photo filing system I can easily use $(FILE_FOLDER) to get what I want.


It's my lot to think in a too complicated way.

I use to export my images to jpg with a standardized file name:
$(FILE_NAME:4)-???_$(EXIF_YEAR)-$(DESCRIPTION)
The "???" is a placeholder for a part of the path, which I type in for 
the time being, but which I want to find an automized way to replace, 
too. One after the other.


How can I set the preference from the default "$(FILE_NAME)" to my user 
defined string?


I couldn‘t find a way, so I thought about some lua script. Lua seems to 
be somewhat simple, but I find the lua API not so easy to look through. 
Anyhow I find "events.intermediate-export-image.callback" promising to 
intercept and change the filename, but how do I proceed? My skills are 
on the scale of pre-beginners for now. I haven’t got further than 
scanning through existing lua scripts to catch a glimpse of what to do, 
but I‘m confident in raising my learning curve soon.


Please set me on the track.
Volker

[darktable-user] When changing view to "all except rejected" lightable jumps to blank screen

[Martin]

Hello,
first of all, I love darktable, thank you very much for your work!
I am on version 3.1.0~git1082.75d0f3fa4 but not sure if this behavior
is new, it may not be.

I would like to report following behavior which is unexpected for me
and not "friendly":

- In the lighttable view when I go through my photos one by one (only
one shown maximized) I go back and forth with the mouse wheel
- press "r" to reject a photo
- switch the view from "all" to "all except rejected"
I would expect to see the next/previous photo that is not rejected to
not lose my position of where I currently was.
But instead it jumps to a lighttable with a blank center and the
bottom row of photos is at the most recent photos. I use "culling" in
the bottom mode selector.

It is annoying as one then needs to find again the photo where you were before.

Best regards,
Marty
