Summary: Empty albums should not be included when sorting albums
by date
Product: digikam
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
ReportedBy: Thomas.McGuire gmx net
Version: 0.10.0-svn (rev.: 819557) (using 4.00.84 (KDE 4.0.84 (KDE 4.1 >= 20080625), compiled sources)
Compiler: gcc
OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.22.17-0.1-default
When sorting albums by date (View->Sort Albums->By Date), Digikam should not add albums to the list which do not have any images at all.
This often happens with hieracial albums, e.g. consider the following album structure:
- My France Holiday
\- Paris
\- Bretagne
Now, assume "My France Holiday" itself has no pictures, only "Paris" and "Bretagne" have.
When sorting by folder, this is fine, since "My France Holiday" has child items.
However, when sorting by date, the list is flat, and displaying "My France Holiday" does not make sense at all.
This was already a problem in KDE3, but in KDE4 it got worse, since Digikam now has the ability to have multiple collections, which also means that there is always an album "$HOME/Pictures" (when the default is used), and that album is usually empty by itself, but always displayed when sorting by date.
