[digiKam-users] Repair hidden items?

Dmitri Popov-2
Hello,

If you right-click on an album, there is the "Repair hidden items"
option? What does it do?

Thanks!

Kind regards,
Dmitri

Hi Dmitri,

It is possible that not all images will be shown in an album. If this is the
case, the status bar at the bottom shows that there are hidden items. The
cause may be a defective grouping that was created across album boundaries or
images have been moved. Another reason can be defective versioning, a derived
image was deleted, the original is still hidden (this bug has been fixed). The
function therefore tries to repair such defective in the database so that the
images in the album become visible again.
