http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121367         
           Summary: Add properties tab to digiKam and (especially) IE
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: mikmach wp pl


Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc3.4.3
OS:                Linux

Add properties tab to digiKam and (especially) IE

Old style properties tab will allow for:

- seeing all properties of image without heavy use of mouse (good for
  accessibility)
- changing name of image in IE
- seeing properties of image in IE (now access to them is very limited)

One of cons mentioned earlier was redundancy with tooltips, but:

- there is no such redundancy in IE
- tooltips can be disabled in options and in such situation there is no
  access to properties of image
- tooltips require excessive use of mouse (bad for accessibility
- tooltips are very sensitive to mouse moves, minimal move of mouse and
  whole info vanishes

- use of properties tab and tooltips at the same time allow for very
  wide comparison of properties, not possible in any other way

I'm fully agree with you Mikolaj, have a "file" properties is needed. My "image properties sidebar" first implementation commited to svn in the past included it. After any discution with Tom and Joern, we have removed it because it's redondant with tooltips in main interface.

Your viewpoints are right for me, especially with IE. This is my plan :

I will include sidebar to camera GUI, especially to remplace file properties dialog and exif dialog. I will trying to make a common 'file' properties sidebar that we can re-use in IE in first. About main interface, we need to discut about with other developper.

My viewpoint about tooltip from main interface : i don't use it because it's incomplete, especailly with file-metadata informations. A sidebar will be better because we have more space to display more information without catch any current album items.

Other Pro Photo management programs use sidebar like widget for that. It's name 'Resume for Photographer', including any file properties, image properties, and important metadata. I will trying to find any screenshots...

Didn't use program (don't have Mac) but from review and screenshots UI
is a dream.

I propose to make a generic item resume sidebar tab, including file properties and some important informations for photographer (from metadata) like 'flash on', 'aperture', etc.

Your viewpoints

What IMO user should find in such sidebar:

- possibility to change name but with restriction of changing extension
- weight of image
- dimensions
- information about assigned tags
- album name (with path)
- date and time of creation (not editable)
- comments (not editable)
- rating (not editable)
- type

- less important

  - rights, owner
  - thumbnail
 
    - could be useful in Image Editor to see original version,
      before modifications
    - could be useful also in main window for preview of image while
      comparing with other image while scrolling through big album

- chosen photo attributes (configurable?)

  - exposure time
  - aperture

This is my comments :

- Dimensions/8bit/16bit is already in Color sidebar tab.
- Nothing will be editable, especially the filename. There is already a file in B.K.O about to improve F2 file renaming dialog.
- Take a care that this tab will be common into editor (and showfoto witch don't support database info) and main interface. Take a look about properties tab in CameraGui, if i can mix this in the same code.

Thanks in advance for you comments

Gilles

SVN commit 532607 by cgilles:

digikam from trunk :

- New Image Properties side bar tab to display image resume.
- DMetadata memory optimization and new methods to get photograph resume from image.
- Disable album item tool tips by default.

NOTES:

- In this new resume sidebar tab, all digikam tags properties aren't displayed. i think it's redondant with Comments & tags sidebar tab. Because this one is very easy to read by non-photographers users, i think it's not necessary to duplicate here these informations, and this way simpilfy source code about to share resume sidebar tab implementation between showfoto and digiKam (there is no database depency).

- Album Item Info tool tips is now disable by default. This view is now very uncomplete about metadata. Something need to be done here to improve it (or we can remove this view ???)

TODO : in image editor, if an image is saved to a new file, all image properties side tabs aren't updated (Marcel ?).

All constructive viewpoints are welcome !

Currently we have:
- one sidebar with properties _editable_ : comments & tags & Ratings
- one sidebar with properties _non editable_ : size, pictures info etc

For me it's OK and more consistent to keep things like that
So IMHO you can close it

That would be good. But if you really don't want to do that at least
change order of panels as mentioned in other post in thread.

Few comments:

- There is additional margin around navigation buttons in Properties
  panel, other panels don't have it.
- I am (and IMO not only me) managing in Digikam photos from various
  sources (especially scanner). In Photograph Properties there is looong
  list of "unavailable" properties. Maybe just don't show them or give
  *one* line: No Exif data available.
- Separation of sections looks heavy: horizontal bar, italics,
  underscore. Maybe make it more like in Metadata panel: bold, centered
  text, plus some space.
- Order of panels: currently this is - Properties, Metadata, Colors,
  Comments&Tags, Tag filters. IMO order should be: Properties,
  Comments&Tags, Metadata, Colors, Tag filters. In this way it is going
  from general info to more specific, especially with many metadata info
  already included into Properties panel - smaller mouse move to switch
  between Comments and File info. If you would switch additional data
  from Metadata to Comments, current order would be OK.
- I miss Album name/path. I know, I argued for folder name in the past
  but when seeing it in action it is different. On most systems folder
  name/path will be shortened which results in something like this:
  /home/mi...ikam/sesja (and this is not nested album!). To see full
  path user have to hover over name. What about changing it into Album
  and show path inside of digiKam master directory with tooltip showing
  system path?

#1 ==> fixed in svn
#2 ==> I will take a look.
#3 ==> I will take a look.
#4 ==> no, because i want an homogenous GUI between Showfoto and digiKam (Main interface, image editor and camera gui). Showfoto don't have 'Comments & Tags' and 'Tags Filter' sidebar tabs. Properties and Metadata are common. This is why, these one, are in first on the top.
#5 ==> I don't understand what you mean... Where is the problem exactly ?
