           Summary: Req: Add "Open With..." context menu to image editor
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandriva RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: dennis meulensteen nl


Version:           0.80b2 (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs
OS:                Linux

I would like to have the context menu from the thumbnail view also made available in the image editor's main screen.

I particularly need the "Open With..." submenu to trigger the many shell scripts I use to add much needed (to me) functionality to DigiKam. This functionality supports my RAW workflow, off-line storage, and several RAW conversion options without which DigiKam is not suitable for my needs.

I'm not up to the task of writing kipi-plugins to do the job, but shellscript is another story.

Alternative would be to make a tool-bar option available for this purpose, that would also be excellent!

I hope someone can provide this because I'm not up to coding it myself :-(

Regards,
Dennis.
