Overlay a photo

[Andrey Goreev]

I am not sure if that can be done.However you can try digiKam's Lightroom module (Ctrl + L) which allows to compare pictures side by side. I think you can pin your picture with distance tags to the left side and then switch pictures on the right side.Will it work?Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

Thanks for your suggestion. I don't really want the overlay to be on every photo permanently, I just want it to be viewed on top of all the photos to be tagged in order to indicate what distance tag will be required. Each individual photo should remain unedited
 in appearance.

Sounds like a task more suitable for GIMP or Krita where you can add images as layers and then either merge the layers or create a new layer from visible.

Hi all




I am trying to use digikam to tag photos to analyse images based on the distance away from the camera an animal is captured at. To do this I have taken a photo with the relevant distances marked out on the photo and have since edited the image to remove the
 background of the image and just leave the required distance markers. I now want to overlay this image to all the images I want to tag to enable me to tag distances for each image I have from camera traps. I am fairly new to digikam and was wondering if there
 is a way to do this or an alternative way in digikam to achieve the same thing?




Many thanks

Jamie
