Absolutely agree. Shotwell becomes virtually unusable if it insists on cataloguing raw files.
I have to move them out of the directory, run Shotwell, and then move them back. Highly inconvenient. Please include a simple feature for ticking the files you want Shotwell to include. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to shotwell in Ubuntu.

But it slows down the computer a lot to generate the mimics and eats a lot of disc space. I already found a thread on the subject on the mailing list, to discard the mimics folder : http://lists.yorba.org/pipermail/shotwell/2010-August/000825.html But on my computer, I always store my own jpeg files generated from my raw files like this : photos/RAW/photo1.nef photos/JPG/photo1.jpg I do not want to rely on the jpeg mimic or on any other embedded tool to generate the jpeg but have to use dedicated special tools, mainly for picture quality reasons. So, I always have a corresponding jpeg for all my raw files. In shotwell I can then see all the pictures twice (one for the raw, the other one for the jpeg). The best would be if shotwell could discard all raw files (menu option, filename filter via command line...). This would solve my issue and the issue reported on the mailing list above. I have shotwell Version: 0.8.0-1~maverick1 Thanks !
