Sorry, but this is not what I'm looking for. I don't want complete
data or modify it, I want only some of these to be visible with the
image when I sort them. Other pro tool like Lightroom can this.
For example, in current view mode, you only see filename through
status bar (and if too lang, it's truncated), no aperture/speed

I don't want to always keep right panel as I'm using Digikam in
traveler mode on a netbook, so small screen ...
As a side effect, I'm mostly using full screen for view mode and a
annoying bug, digikam doesn't keep the fact that I always want to have
status bar.

Thanks.
Cheers,

Julien
