[digiKam-users] Latest Imports

[Sebastian Beer]

I’m doing this within digiKam.
Import/Add images…
Then select the folder which contains the pictures I want to import.
In the pre-view window select the pictures I want to import.
Mark them with yellow flag using the right mouse button. Assign Label/Pick/Yellow flag
All pictures appear having a yellow flag.
Download selected.
Choose new folder.
Import.
Afterwards the heic picture does not have the yellow flag anymore.

Hope this description helps.

Best regards,

Sebastian Beer
