Re: Print Assistant

Gilles Caulier-4
I found the problem. There is really a Qt5 bug with QStandardPaths::locateAll(). So i used a different wait to handle template files. Now all work fine with this commit (available with next 5.2.0)

I can confirm that template files are not found on my computer :

kipi.plugins: Template files list:  ()

I have today reported a bug to openSUSE (#994809 in bugzilla) for the issue of paper sizes not being selectable as this issue does affect more than just digikam.

However I am not yet convinced that the issue of the missing templates in the Print Assistant is clear enough yet and I'm hoping Andrew Goodbody may be able to progress this issue and help decide whether this is a programming error in the Print Assistant of another QT5 bug.

Having done some more testing I now find that I am unable to select all
paper sizes using the Kate editor which also uses QT5 printing, so this
is starting to look very much like a QT5 issue. In my case QT5 is V5.6.1
on openSUSE Tumbleweed.

(gdb)

So it is failing to find the templates file, however that exists at

$ find /usr/share/kipiplugin_printimages/templates/ -name templates.xml
/usr/share/kipiplugin_printimages/templates/templates.xml

So this is probably bad news

(gdb) p
QStandardPaths::standardLocations(QStandardPaths::GenericDataLocation)
$9 = {<QList<QString>> = {<QListSpecialMethods<QString>> = {<No data
fields>}, {p = {static shared_null = {ref = {atomic = {
              _q_value = {<std::__atomic_base<int>> = {static
_S_alignment = 4, _M_i = -1}, <No data fields>}}}, alloc = 0,
          begin = 0, end = 0, array = {0x0}}, d = 0x5a4f660}, d =
0x5a4f660}}, <No data fields>}
(gdb)

It seems like QStandardPaths::GenericDataLocation is not returning the
paths that is should. However qtdiag shows the correct entries, so I
have no idea what is going on here.

yes sure. But what it expected to see in this trace as dysfonctions ?

The trace are generated by qCDebug in C++ source, located in kipiplugin

    This is the console messages from the point at which I start the
    Print Assitant to the point at which I close the Assistant. I have
    the whole trace from start to finish of running digikam but
    searching through it all this is all the messages which come up
    while running the Assitant, the only other mention of printing is
    where it loads the PrintImagesUI. The last couple of lines appear
    when trying to change paper size from A4 to 6x4 which does not work.

                I'm guessing that perhaps in parsing the templates.xml
        file it
                looks for
                a paper size of 210x297 and fails to match against the
        A4 size of
                210.0x297.0?

                That does not explain why the selection of a different
        paper size or
                orientation does not stick though.

out why
                    this does not

        openSUSE
                    Tumbleweed
                        system. I'd like to try and work out if this is
        a bug in
                    the Print
                        Assistant or if it is something to do with the
        openSUSE
                        implementation/compilation. I must point out
        that Print
                    Images also
                        fails

                    No idea about OpenSuse.

                    If it work with 4.x and not 5.x, i suspect something
                    different with Qt5
                    about Print interface and the way to handle printer
                    features/configuration.

                    The tools have been ported as well from Qt4 to Qt5.
        Nothing
                    have been
                    removed especially.



                        I assume the Print Assistant is part of the Kipi
        Plugins
                    which are
                        at V5.1.0 and digiKam itself is 5.1.0.


                    yes it is...

        <mailto:[hidden email]>>>>>>:

                                                I have just tried to
print a
                    photo from
                                digikam using
                                            the Print
                                                Assistant and found that
        I am
                    unable to
                                select some of
                                            the paper
                                                sizes supported by my
        printer, a
                    Canon
                                IP7250. I can
                                            load most of
                                                the normal A4 type and
        Envelope
                    sizes but it
                                will not
                                            select 5x7
                                                Borderless when I click
        on it,
                    which is what
                                I wanted to
                                            use.

                                                I have used Gimp to
        print the
                    photo now as I
                                wanted but
                                            still cannot
                                                get it to allow that
        size either
                    in the
                                Print Assistant
                                            or just
                                                Print Images.

                                                Anyone any ideas please?

Re: Print Assistant

Stuart T Rogers
In reply to this post by Stuart T Rogers
Just wondering if anyone else here is seeing this problem with
unsupported paper sizes in the Print Assistant especially on other
distros apart from Debian and openSUSE?

It seems that having been reported and traced by Andrew Goodbody it has
gone quiet at least on this list. Has any progress been made from a
digikam perspective?

Sadly nothing seems to have happened on my bug reported in openSUSE
about paper size selection either.

All most frustrating as I normally use digikam for printing my photos as
well as managing them.

Updating Database from Multiple locations using Dropbox

Henk van den Berg
I would like to work/adjust images from multiple PCs from multiple locations and is it possible for multiple people to access the database at the same time.  I have the images located in Dropbox and would like to know how to set up the database to ensure tags, Ratings and adjustments are synced on all the pc connected to the dropbox.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Henk

The reply did not reach my inbox either but I can confirm that it works
for me in the latest code from git.

Thanks Gilles.

Hi Henk,

Have you try with a FUSE mount on dropbox ? I have not tested it but someone could do.

File extension Issue

Henk van den Berg
In reply to this post by Gilles Caulier-4
Randomly Digikam seems to create a file with .JPG4392 (or other numbers) after tags are updated. The issue is that the actual image file is not updated with the change.

Can you please advise what this issue is.

Regards,
Henk

File is created by Exiv2 shared library while metadata are changed. It's a temporary file in fact.

Sound like a bug in library. Report this problem to Exiv2 team

5.2.0 is obviously delayed as the schedule still shows 18th September.
Just wondering by how much it will be delayed?

Re: Print Assistant

I have now gotten V5.2 and yes the Print Assistant works now, thanks.

I still have two issues with paper size selection using both Print
Assistant and Print Images. Firstly the list of paper sizes shows sizes
other than those supported by the printer selected, and second I cannot
select certain sizes which are supported by my printer. Now I know this
is not directly related to digikam as it affects other QT5 applications
like the Kate editor.

So my question to those here is do any of you also have this issue? I am
using openSUSE Tumbleweed so it is pretty current.

Re: Print Assistant

Gilles Caulier-4
Well, just report this problem as UPSTREAM to OpenSuse bugzilla, as thos problem is common to Qt5 application. The problem can be located while packaging Qt5::PrintSupport, or a bug in Qt library. For this last case, this must be reported finally to Qt bugzilla.

Re: Print Assistant

Stuart T Rogers
I have had a open thread on the openSUSE forums for a while with no one
else reporting it, also created an openSUSE bug on which nothing has
happened. That's why I'm trying to prompt folks to take a look and see
if they see the same issues.
