Hello Digikam users,
I am working on a patch (see [1]) that let users configure which
directories get ignored from the photo collection. Starting point for
this feature was the behavior on Synology NAS: The system automatically
creates in every directory a subdirectory "@eaDir" to store thumbnails.
To avoid that digikam inserts the original photos and its corresponding
thumbnails twice, it would be nice to configure directories that gets
ignored automatically.
I extended the database configuration dialog [2] where users are able to
define such directories. Gilles gave me feedback that it would be nice
to define a set of directories (included in digikam core) that get
ignored by default (of course, users are able to remove entries from
default list).
My question to you are now: What directories do you wish to ignore in
photo collections by default (alongside "@eaDir")? (Note: directories
starting with a dot are ignored anyway independent of this patch)
Best regards,
Jan
