[Bug 235733] New: No possibility to cancel a delete file operation

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=235733

           Summary: No possibility to cancel a delete file operation
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.2.0
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:           1.2.0 (using 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2), KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop /
openSUSE_11.2)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31.12-0.2-default

When doing mistake while deleting a picture, there is no way from inside
digikam to cancel the operation.

This can be particularly anoying because in the preview, the file deleted is
not the one selected in the thumbnail, but the one loaded in the preview. So if
you click a file in thumbnail and then press delete (whitout waiting for the
file to be loaded), the previous picture is deleted, and not the last you've
selected.

An edit > cancel operation would be helpful.

I think it would be even better if it deleted the right file in the first place
:)

I have had the same problem that you describe.

Best regards,
Mikkel

So what's the actual bug in your opinion?

The actual bug is, imho, the lack of possibility to cancel after having deleted
a file.

If you delete a single file, this is usually done within a second, so clicking
"Cancel" while before it finishes is close to impossible IMHO.

If you instead of deleting the file send it to the trash, you can undo it by
going to the trash, but then it takes a while to find the file. Maybe we could
add an "Undo move to trash" function as there is in Dolphin?

In the long run, a "Flag for deletion" kind of tag would be nice that you can
apply after sorting out the pictures, and can easily undo within digikam. Maybe
it could be done if bug #150531 is addressed.

I got the impression that the actual bug is: "if you click a file in thumbnail
and then press delete (whitout waiting for the file to be loaded), the previous
picture is deleted, and not the last you've selected."

As to deleting, what I want to have is that a deleted file appears immediately
from the views in digikam. In any case the deletion process is passed to
kdelibs.

I have never seen a cancel button for a deletion process; deletion is very
fast, as Michael said.

I wasn't clear, sorry.

What I wanted to say is that an UNDO feature would be interresting in this
situation. (As there is in many softs : edit > undo last operation)

Confirming with digikam-1.2.0-2.fc12.x86_64

What's the expected UI for interacting with the Trash?

The trash itself can restore files. Also, if deleting many files takes long,
this can be interrupted using the normal progress indicator applet of plasma.

I agree with comment #8 from Johannes. For me this file can be closed. Right ?
