           Summary: allow shifts in synchronized view for 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

To compare similar images, where the object of interest
(or view or  photographer)
has slightly moved, it would be nice to have
the possibility of a synchronized view, but with a 
horizontal and/or vertical offset.

To achieve this, one approach would be:
- use (in the synchronized view mode) CTRL+slider
  to adjust the position of either the left or right panel,
  but without adjusting the other panel
- keep the resulting offset for the synchronized panning and zooming 
  so that other corresponding regions can be inspected as well.

There is one (small) technical problem with
keeping an offset, namely, what if
during panning the edge of one of the images is reached.
Presumably the simplest is to just stop (in both panels) 
in this case.
