Currently, albums sort order is alphabetical only. (The images in an album can
be sorted using several methods but this doesn't apply to the albums
themselves.) The Calendar view is not equivalent to being able to sort the
albums by date because it doesn't show one the album names. It's very useful to
be able to see one's recent albums close to the top of the view tree, with the
album names (i.e., the corresponding directory names) there too. The date for
an album may be taken to be the date of the first image in it (coming from
Metadata) or a date that the user specifies and is saved in the corresponding
folder to a digiKam folder specific configuration file or to a central
database. (The former would be preferable as it is easier to give someone a
copy of a particular album with one's particular settings/edits for that album
also copied and passed. Also, it would lend itself to script manipulation
easily.)
These (both sorting albums by date and saving directory specific settings) are
present in Picasa and are some of the features that one might wish to have when
migrating to digiKam.
Reproducible: Always
Actual Results:
The only option for sorting albums is by name.
Expected Results:
There should be an option to sort the albums by date too.
