Summary: Batch processes does not work properly if target
directory is outside Album Library Path
Product: digikam
Version: unspecified
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
ReportedBy: gionnyboss gmail com
Version: 9.2 (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from: Fedora RPMs
If you try to do a batch process to images, you have to specify a target directory that is a subdirectory of the Album Library Path specified in Digikam settings. If you specify a target directory not inside the Album Library Path, Digikam does the work correctly, but after every image conversion an error dialog comes out with this message: "Error adding image to application; error message was: Target album is not in the album library."
It works anyways, but it is unacceptable to click "Continue" after every image conversion, especially if you have a lot of images to convert.
I think that you should be able to specify a target directory for processed images outside the Album Library Path, because it can happen that you need processed images just to do something with them and then you want to delete them, so there is no need that processed images are included in Digikam albums. For example, I would like to resize some images so that I can send them via email to friends, and then I want to delete images. And I don't want that smaller resized images are in a Digikam album.
I guess that this has been done for coherency in the application and this is not a big problem, I can live with it, but it is weird that it works anyways but this error still comes out. I guess that this is a bug, because if it works you should not see any error message.
I hope that my report can help you to improve this great application.
