<div>I found this a mild irritation when I
first started using digiKam (
<a href="http://digikam.1695700.n4.nabble.com/digiKam-users-Changing-location-of-dtrash-directory-td4709691.html" target="_blank">http://digikam.1695700.n4.nabble.com/digiKam-users-Changing-location-of-dtrash-directory-td4709691.html</a>
) as I have scripts that parse my image directory and as far as I
can tell, it's not possible to relocate the .dtrash directory. I
get round it by using a wrapper script that does an rm -rf
/store/media/images/.dtrash before starting digiKam and it never
seems to do any harm.</div>

<div>Currently, it takes 4 clicks to empty Trash:</div>
<div>1. Find and click Trash in folder tree</div>
<div>2. Find and click Delete button on the opposite side of the
screen(!)</div>
<div>3. Now a pop-up action menu is shown, click Delete all
here. (Why not "Empty Trash"?)</div>
<div>4. You are now prompted "Are you sure you want to delete
ALL items permanently?" (Oh no! Sounds scary - again, why not
just say "Empty Trash"? which is a well established metafor on
many systems). Click Yes to empty trash.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The workflow can be improved by making the following
possible:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. Right click on Trash</div>
<div>2. Select Empty Trash</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is both much simpler and less confusing for the user.
And it is fewer clicks and much less cognitive load.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope you will implement this.</div>
