I have several<br>picture collections stored in network shares (where several family members<br>store their photos), so scanning the whole collections is a slow process. <br><br>The thing is, I added one of these collections in Digikam, and now it has<br>started scanning for new elements, and as I expected, it is slow (I don't<br>mind, I can leave it overnight). My question is: Is it possible to display<br>the albums and pictures on the fly as they are scanned, in the albums<br>section? That was a feature of Picasa that made long loading times more<br>bearable, as you could start tagging/editing some pictures while other<br>folders were being scanned.<br><br>Thanks for your time, and congrats for this great piece of software.<br><br><br><br>--<br>Sent from: http://digikam.1695700.n4.nabble.com/digikam-users-f1735189.html<br></body></html>
