           Summary: change ratings via short-cuts in the light-table
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian stable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Light Table
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: arnd.baecker web de


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian stable Packages

Associating ratings via CTRL-1, to CTRL-5 does not  work in the light-table.
This is important, because it might be one of the most common ways 
of marking the winners/loosers...

However, it is not obvious how to solve this:
Gilles> we have  image at the same time in LT. On witch image we must apply rating ?


Options would be
   - apply to the image for which the corresponding side-bar is open (or active)
   - if both are open: only apply to the left one?
   - always only apply to the left one ("master image")?
But: then there is the presently active image in the thumb-bar,
which is not related to either of the shown images.

Maybe something more visual and less implicit is needed?
   - mark the left and right selected image by some color in the thumbbar
     (so one really knows which are displayed)
   - uses the small space below each thumb to display the 5-stars rating
     (and to modify with the mouse) 

Feedback from other users would be appreciated to find a good solution!
