            Bug ID: 301543
          Severity: normal
           Version: 2.6.0
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: [hidden email]
           Summary: support for ora and possibly kra file format.
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: [hidden email]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: general
           Product: digikam

OpenRaster (.ora) is an multi-layer interchange format for opensource graphics
applications. It is the native file format for Mypaint and is well supported by
both Krita and the gimp. It is basically a zip file containing an xml document
and png images. Dolphin has a preview plugin for this format. It would be nice
if this was supported in Digikam in the same way that gimp xcf is supported in
digikam (and be a lot easier to support).  Krita kra is another zip,xml based
format that would be nice to have some level of support for. Neither of these
are high priority but they should be in the bug tracker for sake of
completeness

Reproducible: Always

ok I may have been a little hasty here, It seems that I can get these file
types to work up to the point of displaying thumbnails and being able to tag
them etc -- editing is not so critical writing out sidecar files would be nice
though - what might be better long term may be to embed the sidecar file inside
the the zip archive.

more research http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenRaster it seems that openraster
can store xmp and exif data in the file itself. sounds  like I should be
handing this bug report down to the libraries that digikam uses to handle this,
which are they again?

Yes, Exiv2 shared library (http://www.exiv2.org)

Note : Thumbnails are managed by KDE kioslave. So it's KDELibs stuff,
especially with non native file format supported by digiKam

What's the status about .ora and .kri thumbnailer? Is any Kioslave developer
taking this suggestion into account from 2012? GNome has yet that thumbnailer
...

Will KDE user have it too soon?

Thank you

I fork to KDELibs this entry to know the status of .ora and .kra support
through kimgio.
