about "private" photos

[marcram7]

Hi to all

About the "private photos" problem...
For example:
a picture of you making strange faces, or walking without trousers at home, images that you don't want to show to your aunt when you show her your collection.
a picture of your neighbor shoveling snow and throwing it to another garden, that you don't want to accidentally display when you are showing pictures to someone else (maybe the neighbor himself).

I was thinking that an easy way should be to add a specific tag ("private", or "family"...) to these pictures, and apply a set of filters to hide them.

Is there any way to make custom buttons and add them to the bars?
It would be very helpful (instead of searching the filters section, find the tags, select them for hiding and apply) to customize a button (a panic button :-) ) in the toolbar to apply immediately a set of memorized filters.
Buttons that should be very helpful for other type of filetring too.
I know almost nothing about programming, but I think this thing may be easy to implement. Or not?

Thanks

risky. I have them in special folders not even visible in digikam...

I am not quite new in digiKam, but never before (?) I was encouraged enough to write.

But the questions of [hidden email] broke the ice:

I think, he (she?) too would be satisfied with a logical function:
Look .for. "A" .and. "B" .but. .not. ("X" .or. "F") in the marking of my pictures.

Perhaps this funktion yet exists. If .not., it might be interesting to get it.

I had worked with digiKam 4.0, but it is long ago. since several months the program will not start and run, I must take my mind and time and build up with new installation.

My approach is quite simple and based on the Lightroom strategy. I change the keyboard shortcut to mark the image as deleted using the red flag or the red colour.

When I want to show my images to someone else, I simply filter images without the red flag and the filter do the job to hide everything that don't want to show.

Works pretty well for me.

No need to build digiKam yourself. Just use last AppImage bundle instead. It run on all Linux.See Download page for details from digiKam.org
