[digiKam-users] Grouped files -- Selection Properties vs File Properties -- Two accounts

[Maik Qualmann]

Whether when selecting grouped items it is used as a group or just the first 
image has a little history in bug reports. The setting is in digiKam Setup 
under Miscellaneous in the Grouping tab as an option for metadata.
Yes and Ask -> as a group, No -> only first image.
