I don't have any preferences, so all this looks fine to me.
Do you have any specific plans, what to tackle for 0.9.4?
Below are a couple of points, but before let me mention
a few issues, which did not make it into 0.9.3:
1) Bug 145252: Umask settings used for album directory,
not for image files
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=145252
solved IMO, but has to be applied.
2) Bug 141730: page down/up goes to next/previous picture istead of
scolling a page
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=141730
(Note: Pressing CTRL-PageDown goes down by one page)
Not fully solved: help needed.
3) Search using Tag Name does not work
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=141037
Feedback by Marcel is needed.
4) Sharpen tool: no 100% is possible with the new zoom-tool
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148072
(related to http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147542)
In my opinion this could be applied while
the remaining bug for small images needs to be found.
Now on to the bigger tasks. Things coming to my mind are:
A) various bugs related to dates management
- http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=141014
- http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144215
- http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=142566
- and more ...
B) speed-up/feed-back to users when many images are displayed
(side effect of the recursive album view, in particular
in combination with the quick filters)
Might to some extent be related to
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151122
C) Merged display of sub-albums
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134389
(Top 6 of all votes ;-)
D) These two might be not that difficult:
94562 renaming an album recreates all thumbnails
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94562
88932 add service menus functionality
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88932
E) Thumbnail generation, and preloading of images:
- http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140615
- http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132047
F) Simpler management of RAW images:
I still find dealing with raw images simpler in ufraw
(no insult!). Some bugs related to this are:
- http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=142568#c4
- Which whitebalance is used
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=142055
- http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=142975
- http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150457
Note that in my opinion this is also related to
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125387
("Simulate changes to images only")
G) I have some issues concerning the light-table,
will open a separate BKO on this later.
There are a couple of other wishes with a large number of votes,
but several of them are only doable with a database change,
i.e. >=0.10.
Best, Arnd
