    I am aware it is. a big change in behaviour and for your use case,
    it definitely doesn't make sense. This change has been requested by
    users, but I agree, it has gone too far by making this the only
    behaviour. This should either be made configurable somehow.<br>
    I introduces these changes so I am happy to think of and implement a
    solution, but I have exams coming up. So I will only be able to do
    this after mid February. Your options are to live with it or switch
    back to 5.3.0 for the time being (or hope someone else will pick it
    up). I am sorry I can't provide any more timely assistance.<br>

                  <div>The big problem is this is a full change of
                    behaviour. <br>
                    For years, I have adopted a workflow that worked
                    with 'past' Digikam, and now it won't work anymore!<br>
                    <br>
                  </div>
                  All my pictures are grouped 'under' the TIFF format,
                  that qualifies as the 'mother' picture: the original
                  raw, the JPEGs that have been created from the TIFF
                  (itself created in Darktable) and possibly other TIFF
                  versions in case I made several different
                  developments.<br>
                </div>
                Each time I needed to produce a JPEG, usually for online
                publication, a new photobook, or storing on mobile
                devices, I only had to select the TIFFs, and run
                whatever workflow I wanted to use in the BQM.<br>
                <br>
              </div>
              Selecting whole groups might be fine for managing
              metadata, but I can't see any relevancy when it comes to
              resizing, converting to JPEG(!), watermarking, exporting
              and such.<br>
              <br>
            </div>
            Please provide some kind of option, especially when using
            the batch queue manager, so we can have choice between
            selecting only the top picture, or the whole group.<br>
            <br>

              about the watermarking, but the grouping behaviour that
              you describe is actually a feature. When groups are
              collapsed all operations are applied to all group members.
              If you want to apply operations (e.g. add to queue) to
              only specific images of a group, you need to expand groups
              and explicitly set those groups.<br>
              If this is a really big problem in your workflow, please
              describe why and how your workflow works. I don't have
