            Bug ID: 314950
           Summary: Import window should show thumbnails as they are read,
                    not per folder as is now
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: digikam
           Version: 3.0.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Import

The photo import window reads photos by folder. If my 32GB memory card has 14
folders, it doesn't show anything until it finishes reading all the photos in
one folder, then appears to hang for a while until it finishes reading all the
photos in the next folder, and so on.
Three possible methods exist:
1- to display each photo as it's read without waiting for all the photos in a
given folder to be read,
2- as is,
3- to not display thumbs until all of them have been read.
Ideally I would like method 1 as it gives me the quickest feedback. With method
2, if you have 1000 photos per folder, that's a lot of waiting. Method 3 would
be worst for the same reason that method 2 is not good, it would just be far
more severe.

Reproducible: Always
