[digiKam-users] Ordering images on the light table.

Ian McCarthy-2
I'm attempting to produce a slide show, probably to present virtually,
I'm probably being stupid or missed it in the manual, or this email is
becoming a facility request!

What I want to do is order the images in the thumb-list, so by click
&hold and drag an image I can put the image in a different place in the
thumb-list. Then when I have got the ordering correct I would like to be
able to extract the full names of the files in the thumb-list in the
current order into a list which I can save.
It would be I believe a relatively simple software task, which is
probably already there - I've just missed it.
It would make making a pleasing slide show so much easier to produce.
Especially with the side by side view.

Cheers Ian Mac

I realise what I actually need is the ordering bits and file bits from
the presentation tool. Do this process with that is very slow as the
images are so hard to look at, which is why I suggested light table but
with an extension.
