[Bug 174589] New: Drag thumbnails (like google earth) to move through list

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=174589

           Summary: Drag thumbnails (like google earth) to move through list
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:           0.7.0 (using KDE 3.5.10)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I use Showfoto (Digikam) with the thumbnail display at the bottom of the
screen. It seems that it might convenient to be able to drag the thumbnails
using my mouse like is done with Google Earth.

For touch oriented devices this would be especially intuitive (in my view).

Additionally it would be nice if you could use the mousewheel over the
thumbnails rather than having to find the scrollbar at the very bottom of the
window. The thumbnails make such a nice large target.

Thanks for reading

The mousewheel is working in the thumbbar (digiKam and showFoto).

I just see your specifications... this seems to be a rather old installation.
Maybe it is not working in there, showFoto 0.10 and digiKam 0.10 are able to
use the mousewheel.

showFoto 0.9.0 from SVN for KDE3 also uses the mousewheel. It should work on
your installation too, since this is a normal QScrollView widget.

I'd like to apologize, the [hidden email] e-mail no longer works and I couldn't
change it in the preferences for some reason.

[hidden email] is my correct address.

I just tried with shofoto 0.10 beta 5 and indeed the mousewheel does work, most
excellent (I had not realized how old the version I was using was). Thanks for
the heads up.

Now if I can just get the cool mouse drag thingy implemented :-)

See ya

David, just to be sure: for showfoto, to what place do you want to drag the
thumbnails and what should this achieve?

Ideally the behavior would be similar to moving an icon.
Currently if I click on a thumbnail in showfoto and then release the mouse
button, that image is shown in the main window as expected. (the icon is
activated)

In the new behavior this would remain the same, however if I left-click on a
thumbnail, then drag left or right before releasing the left button (in
horizontal mode) the thumbnails would be dragged (scroll) along with the mouse.
When the mouse button is released the scrolling would stop. (as if an icon had
been moved, but instead of moving 1 thumbnail the whole "film strip" would
move)

I believe picassa shows a similar behavior when in edit view.

This would be really useful with touchscreens as the user has a target the size
of the thumbnails rather than a small scrollbar to aim for.

Let me know if you need any more information

thanks

There is some effort to port whole KDE on mobile devices. I think there should
be queries "upstream" to investigate if this feature would be implemented on
libs level (Qt, KDE?) - as reworking of whole pointer-application interaction.

digiKam on an iPhone (or any touchpad-mobile-phones)?
Would be funny to see (we already have spacing problems on normal PCs, :-))

But anyway I also think this should go into Qt libs itself, since it is a way
to navigate with a QScrollView.

On Iphone I don't see purpose but use Nokia Internet Tablet as simple databank
with digiKam to manage photos - would be killer app :)
