<table cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' border='0' ><tr><td valign='top' style='font: inherit;'>I am currently using KPhotoAlbum 3.1.1 using KDE 3.5.9 running Kubuntu 8.04, "Hardy Heron".<br><br>1. If I have an hierarchical structure on my tags and I decide that I should have had another layer between two of these, how can I go about creating one?<br><br>For example, suppose I have the following structure:<br><br>Category: <br>Animals<br> Pets<br> Dogs<br> Cats<br> Horses<br> Wild Animals<br> Birds<br> Owls<br> Eagles<br> Macaws<br> Elephants<br>
Tigers<br> Zebras<br> Wolves<br><br>and I decide that I should have created a sub-category of "Wild Animals" as "Mammals" with "Elephants", "Tigers", "Zebras" and "Wolves" as sub-categories. The structure would then be:<br>Category: <br>
Animals<br>
Pets<br>
Dogs<br>
Cats<br>
Horses<br>
Wild Animals<br>
Birds<br>
Owls<br>
Eagles<br>
Macaws<br> Mammals<br>
Elephants<br>
Tigers<br>
Zebras<br>
Wolves<br><br>Is there an easy way to do this, "after the fact", so that all the photos I have already annotated get the new structure for annotation?<br><br>2. "Wish List"<br><br>In the above example, I would really like the category selection to be such that if I annotate an image, using the above example, as "Owls", it would automatically also select all the "parents", e.g. "Birds", "Wild Animals", "Animals". As it seems to work now, I have to manually select all the parent categories as well as the bottom sub-category. Unfortunately, I am prone to forget to also select the "parents".<br><br>3. Invoke external program<br>I have already reported to Jan that when I try to invoke an external program, I get a little pull down menu which supposedly gives me a choice of "Current Item" and "All selected items", but clicking on either of these gives no response. I have now discovered that this seems to
happen ONLY if the original image is RAW (in my case, Pentax ".pef"). If I do this for a .jpg image, it does give me some programs to chose from. This leads me to another "wish list": I would really prefer to have the extensions shown for the files. As it is now, when I see an image in the thumbnails, or if I try to work with it, I have no idea as to whether it is RAW (.pef), .jpg, .tif or whatever. It would be especially helpful to know if it is RAW.<br><br>I think KPhotoAlbum is VERY close to meeting my desired photo organization requirements, and I thank all the developers for their efforts in providing such a useful package.<br><br>Murray<br><br><br><br><br></td></tr></table><br>
