How to copy selected pictures out to a specific destination?

Chris Green
This question is in two parts, sort of.  

First, how do I select a number of pictures and then copy them all to
one destination?  I know how to select the pictures (CTRL + click to
select each thumbnail) but then how do I copy them all to a particular
destination?  

Then, as I always want to copy to one particular destination, is there
any easy way to set things up so that it's really quick to go to that
specific destination?  E.g. can I write a script to call from a
digikam menu entry that will write all selected files somewhere?

For a destination in a Digikam collection, just drag and drop, then choose Copy in the popup.
For a destination outside Digikam, from the menu: Export, then Export to a remote computer (or whatever it is in english - I use the french version).

You can select a whole album by clicking in the horizontal bar over the thumbnails. And Ctrl-* to invert a selection.

... or drag and drop, at least inside linux. I drag and drop selections to
facebook, owncloud folder in dolphin or anywhere else. Or use Ctrl + C/Ctrl +
V.
