[digiKam-users] Missing XMPs

[digikam at 911networks.com]

Here are my sidecar settings:

after looking at it, it's slightly more complicated.

1. in the raw directory, add some tags with write to sidecar only (see settings)
2. exit DK, so it creates the XMPs in the original directory
3. start DK again
4. move the images from album original album to another album (the
album is not a subdirectory, I don't know if it makes a difference)
5. exit DK 

and the XMPs with the tags are still in the previous album/directory


Thanks
