[digiKam-users] Question about Send Images Tool (Beginner)

Sebastian Zeh
Hi,

I have some limited Linux experience, mainly using lubuntu as OS for my
old Laptop.
I am familiar with basic terminal usage.
I installed Linux Mint (linuxmint-19.3-cinnamon-64bit) on my parents old
pc, because
Windows 7 is no longer supported.

My parents use their PC heavily to manage their digital photos.
Digikam seems like a good solution for them.
But I cannot figure out how to start the "Send Images Tool".
I cannot even find it. Is it supposed to show up in the context menu?
(If this question is answered elsewhere, I didn't find. Sorry :-()

Regards

Sebastian Zeh

Hi,

Go to "Tools/Send by Mail" menu entry, and follow assistant steps...

Best

Hi,

thank you for your answer, but there is no such entry under Tools.
(See https://freeimage.host/i/JTIau2 )

I am using 5.6.0 btw.

Use official Linux AppImage version 6.4.0, and all must be fine :

Hi,

that solved it. Thank you.

I just installed it via the Software Manager that came with Mint, and
did an apt-get update/upgrade.

Never thought of checking the homepage.

Regards

Sebastian
