Hi Folks,
Apologies to trouble you. I thought I filed a bug list on this a while ago, but I might not have. I've been using Digikam for a while and, after recently switching from Ubuntu to Xubuntu, I had to re-load Digikam. The version that came down from the repositories is 4.7.3 I used to be able to go in to Settings -> Configure Shortcuts, and then configure single keypresses to rate an image. It was easy to rip through a days shooting in full screen, just pressing page down, and then a single key press to rate it. That option seems to have vanished from the shortcuts, so I've now got to hold the CTRL as well as pressing a number (and 0 is on the opposite side of the keyboard to 1-5) which is seriously slowing me up; and when I'm talking of day shoots of hundreds of images, you can imagine how much time I'm losing. Can anyone help me out with this please? Many thanks, Michelle Knight _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Look here :
https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/project/KEYSHORTCUTS List is not complete, but it's a good start...

Thanks folks,
It's version 2.1.1, build 23rd September 2011. I could do it in earlier versions although I don't remember their version numbers. Michelle. _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

No you cannot. Shortcuts are hardcoded... Note this have been always like this. rating shortcuts have never been configurable...

I sent Gilles a screenshot offlist and he is now going to look at the source code.

Ok, i find a solution of this problem.
It's very simple. Look into this code : https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/digikam/tags/tagsactionmngr.cpp#L190 The argument to this call is "false". Changing ths to "true" must fix the problem. Can someone try it ? Note : It's the same for Color label and Pick label shortcuts : https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/digikam/tags/tagsactionmngr.cpp#L210 https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/digikam/tags/tagsactionmngr.cpp#L230 See also this entry in bugzilla : https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275077 If someone can test my proposal, and check if all work fine, i can patch source code for next release...

Sorry Gilles, but I am not set up to build digikam at the moment.

Hello, I found an rather ugly way how to rate pictures while pressing the
keys 1 to 5 only. 1. start digikam 2. Use Menu > Settings > "Define Shortcuts" to open Dialog for changing shortcuts 3. press Button "Details >>" at the bottom of the window 4. choose "schema export" in Dropdownfield "Further Actions" (button to the right) 5. choose a target directory 6. copy the file "digikam<SCHEMANAME>shortcuts.rc" from folder "<target diretory>/shortcuts/share/apps/digikam/" to ~/.kde/share/apps/digikam/digikammanewshortcuts.rc 7. stop digikam 8. open the file "~/.kde/share/apps/digikam/digikammanewshortcuts.rc" in an editor 9. add the following lines near the end of the file in front of the row "</ActionProperties>": <Action shortcut="0" name="rateshortcut-0"/> <Action shortcut="1" name="rateshortcut-1"/> <Action shortcut="2" name="rateshortcut-2"/> <Action shortcut="3" name="rateshortcut-3"/> <Action shortcut="4" name="rateshortcut-4"/> <Action shortcut="5" name="rateshortcut-5"/> 10. restart digikam 11. Use Menu > Settings > "Define Shortcuts" to open Dialog for changing shortcuts 12. press Button "Details >>" at the bottom of the window 13 choose the entry "manew" from the first dropdownlist 14. press "OK" Now the rating should be possible by simply pressing the numbers 0 to 5 Unfortunately the steps 11 to 14 are required after each digikam restart to enable the customized shortcuts. Even if the customized entry "manew" is preselected in the dropdownlist, it has to be selected again to become active! _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |
I also noticed and mentioned this problem at some point, but was given the answer that the shortcuts had been hard coded so they would be the same as other programs.
Well fine, if you want to take choice away from your users. It annoyed me at the time, but not enough to delve into the source code. I sincerely hope someone does change this - I have got used to using Ctrl + numbers (on the keypad), but it involves some rather uncomfortable hand contortions, and would far prefer to go back to being able to use the numbers on their own.
