[Digikam-users] Redraw Problems

[Paul Waldo]

Nope, no difference.

I tried an experiment, though.  I used strace on digikam.  When an empty album (My Album) was selected, there are no thumbs to blink.  strace is fairly quiet; it is polling for probably what is my Network Album that is unavailble.  Once I select an album with thumbnails, the blinking starts and I see a huge amount of activity from strace.  It appears that digikam is trying to write something to the same file handle it was checking before.

Daniel, are you using an offline Album by any chance?
