 a Add a basket selection mode : a way to have a selection wich
 remains
 when you click out of a picture ANd which remains between sessions.
 Jbrout
 had this feature, and it was great because you could stop the
 choosing job
 one day and go on another day.
 
 
The basket could be used to export basket album or print album.

Re: [Shotwell] feature request: title just like in picasa

 I think this makes sense -- you're making a point about workflow,
 which is something we've been thinking about here.  I see the problem
 you're describing, but do you have a design in mind?  Would you want
 to be able to simply click on the title and edit it in-place?  I
 understand wanting to minimize mouse clicks and/or keystrokes, but it
 seems that there needs to be at least one action to activate title
 editing. 

I think there should be three possibilities:

1. Clicking on the title (should it select all or not?)
2. Pressing a shortcut like Ctrl+T or simply t
3. Title bar could end with a little tick Batch Title mode, in which
Page Up/Down and Enter would change pictures and title would always be
active for directly typing.

Re: [Shotwell] F-Spot Import - Change Dir Name?

Ühel kenal päeval, P, 2010-10-03 kell 13:08, kirjutas Kenneth Jacker:
 [ Ubuntu 10.04.1;  shotwell-0.7.2 ]
 
 When I first ran 'shotwell', I choose the import from F-Spot option.
 All my prior pictures and tags were then available.
 
 But, all the photos are still under the old ../Pictures/F-Spot/
 directory.  I want to now get rid of F-Spot.
 
 My obsessive/compulsive nature would like the path to all my photos now
 be ../Pictures/Shotwell/ ... corresponding to my new setup and
 application.
 
 Does anyone know how I might this change?
 
 
 Thanks,

http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2485
See this ticket. If this is implemented in a smart[1] way, you could
simply rename your F-spot directory to Shotwell, then relocate one file
and everything would be fine.

[1] By smart I mean Shotwell would assume it could have been directory
change and would apply the directory change to other missing images as
well, where applicable.


Somewhere was talk about automatic relocating as well, but unfortunately
I cannot find the ticket.

Re: [Shotwell] Why does Export enforce file conversion?

 I'd welcome the ability to export a bunch of files to a working

 Obviously, it's helpful to be able to reduce the size of images for

1. Select some files
2. choose File → Export
3. set Scaling constraint to Original size
4. You get original images, no mandatory scaling

 I think that wasn't the question - the question was to export a number 
 of files to a directory outside the library while keeping the original 
 files intact.
 
 Think of it as versioning for your edits, so you can always revert to a 
 previous version by looking at a different file, I'm guessing for the 
 edits done from within Shotwell.
 
 Jon

1. Right click on a photo, choose Open With External Editor
2. As you see, the file opens as FILENAME_modified.jpg
3. Edit your file as you wish, save it and close editor.
4. Wait a second and see how Shotwell updates the thumbnail of your
image.
5. If you want your original image back, right click on the image and
pick Revert to Original.

Re: [Shotwell] Writing tags to original files

2010-09-29 Thread Mattias Põldaru
Ühel kenal päeval, K, 2010-09-29 kell 10:27, kirjutas Michael Hendry:
 There appears to be no facility for writing the tags attached to all (or
 a selection of) files back to the original files.
 
 This would be a very time-consuming task, I realise, but could be
 offered as an option when Shotwell is closed down at the end of a
 session on an incremental basis.
 
 This would ease my concerns about the potential loss of many hours of
 work in classifying and tagging images, and allow (heaven forbid!) a
 change to an alternative photo-management tool.

See http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/1290 , this was implemented 11 hours
ago. Cudos to jim and yorba team!

 My workflow uses an external program to edit my .RW2 files into jpeg. 
 The output jpeg is in the same directory as the original raw file, but I 
 only want the jpegs imported in shotwell.
 
 It's great to be able to use Shotwell for basic editing of RAW, but I'd 
 much prefer if I could keep my workflow and use Shotwell at the end of 
 it without having to manually remove the links to the original raw files 
 that I want to conserve but not display.
 
 Thanks!

I think this is worth adding a ticket. I never had NEF files, but I
think at moment this applies to RAW or whatever other files as well.

Re: [Shotwell] Export pictures misorientated

2010-09-09 Thread Mattias Põldaru
Ühel kenal päeval, N, 2010-09-09 kell 17:00, kirjutas Florian Manach:
 Hi,
 
 I think I found a bug yesterday.
 
 I took portraits with my d90 wich store the orientation in education and 
 imported them into sw, retouch and exported them as files on my desktop.
 
 Problem is : the thumbnail of the exported file is good but the actual image 
 seems to be stored in the wrong orientation.
 
 When I upload this file in Facebook or when I open it in the Gimp, the image 
 is shown in landscape orientation.

JPG files can contain EXIF data, which specifies it's orientation. This
is good, because JPEG is lossy format and every time you reencode it,
you loose some information. Doing real rotate in file is not possible
without reencoding.
The problem is, not all software can handle EXIF rotate right. But GIMP
can, it asks on opening, whether to rotate the image or not (since it
has to reencode it anyway).

 The folder   /home/kjernigan/.shotwell   links to the folder

 Both users are members of a group that has full read/write access to the
 /usr/share/shotwell/.shotwell directory.  Any ideas?

You probably have already checked this, but do the users have rw access
to /usr/share/shotwell/.shotwell/tmp/ too?

Btw, using /usr for personal data (or even links for that) is very
uncommon, /var is usually used for that, and /usr only for program
files.

 This was one of the features I liked about Picasa (which I have

Since me and maybe others have never used send by email in Picasa, then
