I know that color theme rendering depend of widget style used with KDE
application. I recommend to use Oxygen (the best). Look in Setup/Miscs for
details.

Else color themes are provided by KDE Control Panel. Did you install it. Do
you run KDE desktop,

Once in a while, I encounter this problem, too. When friends
send me their tagged fotos, digikam happily imports their
tags (from image XMP), too. Since everybody uses different
tags, this somehow "polutes" my tag tree.

My workflow in those cases:
1. Go to the album, which contain the newly imported
pictures from my friend
2. select all pictures
3. in the right side view "Captions/Tags" I enable the
button "[view] Tags already assigned"
4. uncheck all checkboxes (to remove the tags from the
fotos)
5. "Apply"

This removes all tags from the fotos, but the tags remain in
the tag tree.

6. I go through the left side view "Tags" and delete all
tags, which are assigned to 0 fotos (the number of
fotos which have this tag assigned can be seen in
braces after the tag name (e.g. "Uncle Jon (5)").

Feature requests:

To speed up this process, the following two ideas came to my
mind:

a) "Delete all tags of a foto with one click"

This function could be added in the right side view
"Captions/Tags" as additional action at the "More"-button.
With safety query "Are you sure to remove all tags from the
selected fotos?"
This would speed up step 4.

-> https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348104

b) "Delete all unused tags"

In "Tags Manager" -> "Organize" one could add a new function
"Delete all unused tags".
This function would collect all tags, which
- are not assigned to a foto
- and have no child-tags (or only unused child-tags)
This list would be presented to the user:
"Do you really want to delete the following tags?
- sample tag 1
- sample tag 2
- ..."
This would speed up step 6.

-> https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348105

Just my thoughts about this topic.

This is fantastic news!

Back in Dec 2013, I tried to compile Digikam for OS X via Homebrew[1].
Although I was able to build, I ran into a number of runtime issues.
Since then, there hasn't been much activity in homebrew-kde, so I'm
glad to hear of effort going into producing an easy to use Digikam
binary package for OS X.

> 5. digikam crashes on View => Tables

I'm also able to reproduce this on OS X 10.10.3 with 5th PKG version.
Please find the stack trace[2].

Other minor issues:

* The Google maps view does not work; it just shows blank white. Marble is fine
* CMD+, keyboard shortcut conflicts between View > Zoom to 100% and Preferences

Nice to haves:

* Pinch zoom/other OS X trackpad gestures

Either way, this seems stable enough to use day-to-day. What needs to
happen to see an official release?
