https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=293283 Summary: Option to show files of all MIME-Types in album view
Product: digikam
Version: 2.5.0
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Albums GUI

Version: 2.5.0 (using KDE 4.7.4)
OS: Linux
In "Settings -> Configure digiKam -> MIME Types" you can configure which types
of pictures/movies/audios you want to see in digiKam's album view.
But there are situations where viewing all kind of MIME Types would be helpful.
E.g. text-File or GPS tracks.
I'm not asking for editing those files with digiKam. Just to see them, know
that they are there and moving them to other folders/albums.
Reproducible: Always
Actual Results:
From digiKam mailing list, posted by Jean-François Rabasse:

The reason why I always use a file browser rather than DK to
organise, move, copy, etc. comes from my personal definition of what is
an album. I have images files but also misc. extra files such as GPX
files from my GPS logger, some text files, comments, travel notes, etc.
And I wish to keep all this grouped with the pictures, in folders and
subfolders. From my point of view, an album is *all*, images files,
GPS tracks, travel notes, etc.
As DK ignores non images files at scan time, I can't handle all that
from the DK GUI via select + move actions. With a files browser I "see"
all my files, images or not images, and organisational work is far more
comfortable.

Suggested solution, posted by Ben Staude at the digiKam mailing list:

There is the option to add specific extensions as image, video or audio files,
but I'd really very much appreciate the simple option "show all files". From a
technical point of view, this shouldn't be much of a problem.
