[Bug 174070] New: enhancement plugins should be not in the menu, but in the toolbar on the right

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=174070

Summary: enhancement plugins should be not in the menu, but in
the toolbar on the right
Product: digikam
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: [hidden email]

Version: (using Devel)
OS: Linux
Installed from: Compiled sources

I have the following request:

Now, when one selects an "enhancement" tool to edit a picture, the settings of
these tools are in the latest Digikam Beta 5 shown up sideways on the right of
the editing window.

But why must one still select the tools through the menu?

Why is it not possible, to select the enhancement tools from the toolbar at the
right side? or through a tab on the right side?

The reason for this proposal is the following:

When editing a raw picture, one must often take many enhancement tools into
account. Maybe sharpening, noise, colors, and this repeatedly.

When each plugin would be stored on tabs or on the toolbar on the right side,
the user could reach the plugins with one click only.

Since in digikam, all enhancement plugins must be selected from a manu, one
first has to make one click at the menu "enhancement" and then at the
appropriate plugin.

Say, to edit a raw picture, one needs the use of these tools 10 times (since
one must see, how the combined effect looks).
If a user has 50 Photos to edit, this makes, with 2 clicks for each tool 1000
clicks.

In case the tools could be selected not from the menu, but from the toolbar on
the right, or with tabs on the right after one click, the user would only have
to do 500 clicks.

In fact, most pro software, like photoshop, or bibble works exactly this way.

So this is an important point of usability.
