Issue with Digikam Windows

[Stuart T Rogers]

My wife is using Digikam 4.1 on Windows 8.1 and it seems to be that when
she selects a photo with a single left click it displays the preview
image which is not what she wants, she just wants to highlight the image
in the thumbnail view so she can assign a label. Is there a setting I
have missed somewhere in Digikam which is causing this? Windows 8 is set
to double click to open files & folders.

Problem must be solved with last windows version 4.5.0 packaged by 3rd
party maintainer.

Note : this guy contact me few day ago to package last 4.8.0 for
Windows. So wating a little bit before to update must be a good idea.

Also windows version of digiKAm has only be tested under Windows 7,
not Windows 8.x

Best

Thanks Gilles....

It does work quite well under 8.1. I have had a few crashes but not too
many, I suspect it might have a memory issue.

I use digiKam 4.5 in both 32 and 64 bits versions of Windows 8.1 and never got a crash.

It is great to know that 4.8 is coming to Windows. I tried to compile by myself but it seems I am not that smart :-(.

yes, 4.x version is not simple to compile under Windows. This is due
to huge dependency with KDE4 (compilation and run-time)

For Qt5 port (next digiKam 5.x), KDE dependency will be drop to 60%,
and more until finalisation. This will simplify compilation and
runtime (for ex, we will drop KIOSLave and use multithreading instead)
