Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist

OS: Linux
Installed from: Ubuntu Packages
I was just tagging huge collection of images during which I experienced some
inconvenience with current metedata writing policy in Digikam.
In Preferences i can decide if I want to write certain metadata to files or
store it in database only (faster).
When I select to write metadata to files, the changing of rating, captions or
anything immediately triggers writing new values to files. Though this can
significantly slow down workflow when I want to tag huge collection of of
files.
So I would like to metadata to be written to database only and synchronize it
later. Right now I have to do this:
1 - Unchecking all six options in Metadata Preferences dialog ("Save image tag
as Keywords in metadata embeded in files" and others )
2 - Doing my taging
3 - Checking again all 6 options
4 - Triggering metadata synchronization of selected files or all files.
It's quite apparent that this is pretty inconvenient. So I would like to have
single opition to prevent immediate writing metadata. Preferably the button for
turing this behaviour on and off should be somewhere easily accesible - in
status bar or so.
Another suggestion for this issue was alredy submitead as delayed writing of
metadata here:
