[digiKam-users] DK 7.3: Cannot cut/paste images

[Thomas D]

Hi Maik,

Yeah, I did try to refresh the view in DK. I also verified by opening the
underlying album folder in Explorer and the files were still there.

Some more  details:
I am selecting images inside DK and cutting them inside DK.
Then I go to Explorer and navigate to a folder that is outside of the DK
collection and paste the files there. I am not sure if the folder being
outside of the collection has anything to do with it, but I very much doubt
it.

Maybe Explorer is not sending a callback to DK that the files were indeed
pasted?
