First of all, when 'replying' to a message, you might want to remove<br>
everything not relevant to your question/reply...<br>
<br>
Second, with Digikam, you have to tell it where to find your images:<br>
use the "Settings"->"Configure digikam" menu item, and then go to<br>
"Collections" in the left column, and click "Add Collection" on the line<br>
with "Local Collections". Then select the proper folder where you have<br>
stored your images (highest level, subdirectories will be automatically<br>
included and presented as 'albums'). As digikam will need to scan that<br>
directory to to find all images, it doesn't just use the whole hard disk.<br>
<br>
3.5.0 isn't the newest version, but still very useable for browsing a<br>
collection and edit some images. The newest version is 4.2.0, but for me it<br>
(still) has several problems while editing images.<br>

Hi Andreas,<br>
<br>
we currently do not have any way of tracking this information inside of<br>
Digikam. It is definitely a useful feature and I would like to include<br>
it if libkgeomap is redesigned, but I currently do not have the time for<br>
it. Please go ahead and file a wishlist bugreport, as the screenshots<br>
you are showing look promising as UI suggestions. Please upload the<br>
images to the bugtracker instead of using links, so they will not get lost.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Michael<br>
