           Summary: Aspect ratio plugin enchancements - auto orientation,
                    new selection
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: malenko email cz


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I implemented various enhancements to aspect ratio plug-in. The changes include
1) Automatic setting of orientation
2) It is possible to "click and draw" a new selection. You do not need to move the actual selection to desired position.

I changed imageselectionwidget and aspect ratio dialog.

Minor issues
- Enhancement 2) slightly changes original behavior.  Clicking outside of selection start drawing a new selection now. Before it moved the selection to this position. This can be reverted by changing m_allowCreatingNewRegion to false. If this version will be approved then this this variable can be removed from source code.
- I was not able to catch the "CTRL released" event. (This is due to my minor knowledge of qt.) The relevant code is prepared in function keyReleased. The code works perfectly now, but somebody might wish to look at it. Remove the calling of this function from mouseReleaseEvent() afterwards.

I wish every photographer fun when cropping the pictures. Bye
