[Digikam-users] Workflow when selecting images across albu7ms

[Hans-Peter huth]

Hi,

i need your advice. I frequently select images which are spread across
several albums. I would like to have a possibility to save this selection
so i can eventually pause the selection process and resume another day or
to be able to check and change something. As an example, lets say i look
for images with trees for a later export to a web album or photo book.

For now, i create a tag, e.g. book/trees. This approach works fine, but
each tag changes the db and also the image, so unnecessary backups are
triggered. Not a huge problem, but is there a more elegant way to do this,
maybe without touching the image?

And then once the selection is fine, how do you export them to another
application? In the ideal case we could create a 'pseudo' album just
containing links and use that as an input for e.g. a photo book SW. But
currently this is not possible.

HP, happy digikam user since years
