[Bug 284885] New: caption field is too short

[NaSH]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=284885

           Summary: caption field is too short
           Product: digikam
           Version: 2.2.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: libkexiv2
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:           2.2.0 (using KDE 4.7.1)
OS:                Linux

since the Bug 184763 is resolved, the remaining caption field is too short.

i'm used to add a lot of details about the history of old pictures i scan, and
on my computer the caption is only 4 lines, and not resizable.

there should be a way to resize the field.

for the moment i have to write my caption on gedit, and copy/paste it in
digikam caption tab.


Reproducible: Didn't try



Expected Results:  
resizable caption field

It's clear that Caption and Tags side bar is overloaded of widgets.

It's time to discut a way to separate some field in sub-tabs, as it's done with
"" tab.

I propose to migrate "My Tags" tree-view to a dedicated sub-tab, and let's
Titles, Author, Comments, Date, and Labels on first tab. What do you think
about ?

Maybe we could move the label and rating widget to the Tab "Tags", too, because
it is a kind of tag? But in general I like the new look.

Andi, I thinking the same, but, to have the max height to host tag tree-view is
important, especially tags list is huge. Also free space is no available in
Description page. So, i think this layout is the best.

Anyway, if users want to move labels in tags, it will be easy to do later.

Marcel,

What you think about this layout. It's acceptable for you if we apply it for
next release 2.3.0, planed in one week.

Code change is really simple. There is no side effect. It's just layout. The
lead question is more GUI relevant about usability and ergonomics.

Git commit 88395d75e37d73132d1062dcdc1347f28e180d02 by Gilles Caulier.
Committed on 30/10/2011 at 10:42.
Pushed by cgilles into branch 'master'.

Move My Tags tree-view to a dedicated sub tag from Captions/Tags sidebar to
prevent gui bloating du to huge list of widget to display on Description tab,
especially with small screen.
