[Bug 290022] New: Edit and Rotate in the Light Table open or change the wrong image

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=290022

Summary: Edit and Rotate in the Light Table open or change the
wrong image
Product: digikam
Version: 2.4.1
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Light Table
AssignedTo: [hidden email]
ReportedBy: [hidden email]

Version: 2.4.1 (using KDE 4.7.3)
OS: Linux

If an image is on the light-table and right-clicked on, then choosing Edit or
Rotate does not edit/rotate the image that was right-clicked on - instead, it
edits/rotates the image that is currently selected in the icon view in the main
digiKam window.

If nothing is selected in the main window, then the edit and rotate options
disappear in the light table. Everything else seems fine, e.g. 'Open With' or
'Move to Trash' use the correct image.

(As far as I can tell, the problem is that the context menu is using globally
defined actions, rather than being tailored to the image that has been
right-clicked on. For instance, clicking Edit triggers the global "image_edit"
action. This is connected to DigikamView::slotImageEdit(), which calls
'd->iconView->openCurrentInEditor();'. I don't know the internals of digiKam
well enough to be able to know the best way to fix it, hence no patch, sorry
guys.)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Steps to reproduce - for edit:

1) Pick four images, add to light table
2) Drag one of the images into the left or right pane on the light table
3) Pick something else in the main window
4) Right-click the image on the light table, pick edit
5) The image editor will open the image chosen in step (3)

Or, for rotate:

1) Pick four images, add to light table
2) Drag one of the images into the left or right pane on the light table
3) Pick something else in the main window
4) Right-click the image on the light table, rotate it right by 90 degrees
5) The image selected at (3) will be rotated instead

Actual Results:
The image selected at step (3) is edited/rotated.

Expected Results:
The image that was right-clicked on is edited/rotated.

It happens on older versions of digiKam too - I've noticed it for a while but
have never worked out exactly what it is, other than sometimes the wrong image
appears in the editor.

Andrew,

I confirm. This is due to use JPEGLossLess kipi-plugin into LT. This one must
be only used into albumGUI.

Marcel,

In fact this plugin have serious problem into digiKam now. I think to drop it
in the future, and use already existing delegate code from digiKam core
instead. We will talking about in Genoa, if this goal is fine for you.
