           Summary: batch queue  manager lacks "move to" tool
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sven.burmeister at gmx.net


Version:           1.0 svn (using KDE 4.2.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

If one creates queues, e.g. for RAW processing one wants to move the pictures
to a separate folder than the originals or the other way around, i.e. move the
originals to another folder after they have been processed.

Of course one can work around this manually yet automating the creation of the
new folder and moving the files would ease the use.

I'm not yet sure about the UI but use cases are e.g.:

Move originals to a new folder, either with another name than the original
folder or the same but in a different parent directory, e.g.
normal-pictures/holiday2008 -> originals/holiday-2008
the user would not have to create the new album in originals but just tell
digikam in which parent-folder it should create new folder with the same name
as the original.

Move originals to a new sub-folder, e.g. normal-pictures/holiday2008 ->
normal-pictures/holiday2008/originals.
The user would not have to select a target, since the folder originals is
created automatically below the folder the queue is used on.

Move new pictures to a new folder with the same name but different parent
folder, e.g. RAW-pictures/holiday2008 -> normal-pictures/holiday2008.

Same for moving to sub-folder.
