Bug ID: 417322
Summary: Unable to move album because tree view does not scroll
Product: digikam
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: Albums-TreeView
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: israel.l...@lugosys.com
Target Milestone: ---
The tree view of albums does not let me scroll while dragging an album (folder)
to move it. This makes it impossible to move an album anywhere if I have more
albums (folders) than those that fit in one vertical length of the screen.
I just want to move from /path/to/photos/import/foo to /path/to/photos/foo.
Which requires me to drag foo up the tree until I reach the root "photos"
folder. Which is impossible, because I happen to have a few directories inside
"photos".
I see no way to do this. Dragging "foo" and scrolling the mouse wheel does not
work. Dragging "foo" until the top of the tree view just changes the mouse
cursor to a little forbidden sign, instead of scrolling.
Right-clicking on "foo" does not show any "Move album to..." option. I could
find no way in the UI or in the menus to change the default Album tree view to
any other kind of view (e.g. folder icons, as in Dolphin).
I am aware I can just move the directory outside of Digikam, but that will
leave the sqlite DB out of sync with reality. Which defeats the whole purpose
of using Digikam to manage my photo collection...
I am setting to major since this is a pretty basic feature. I am happy to be
proven wrong if it turns out there is an obvious step I forgot to take, but
whatever it is, doesn't seem to be so obvious.
Can you please implement a usable way of moving folders in the folder (album)
view? Ideally, at least automatic scrolling when the user is dragging and
reaches the top/bottom of the tree widget. Also a right-click "Move to" option,
to avoid dragging altogether would be welcome.
