[digiKam-users] Suggestion : export to folder button (windows explorer)

[chris]

Dear all

I'm on Windows 7 & Digikam 6.00-beta3. I can't find an "export/export to
remote storage". Neither from the main menu, nor from the lighttable menu.

And I'm a bit desperate, because I have already invested quite a lot of time
into the hole setup of digikam, database, tagging etc. and now I find I am
not able to do THE essential thing I'd be needing most: resize-export images
to a local directory.

It is an important workflow for me to be able to browse through my
collection, pick a dozen photos (ideally with the lighttable) and then as a
last step resize the photos and save them locally on my harddisk. I'd prefer
this directory to be outside of digikams watched folders / album-structure,
as it serves only a temporary purpose. I will then use the exported images
for written reports (that's why shrinking the size is absolutely necessary).

I am really, really astonished to see this wonderful software supporting
exports to a dozen web-services, but not a single possibility for me to
export photos from the lighttable directly to my harddisk. I feel very old
now...

Best regards
