[digiKam-users] digikam 6.1 appimage - Digikam::FindDuplicatesView::slotAlbumAdded: Duplicates view is not active, returning

[anonykatz]

Hi,
I'm using the appimage of digikam 6.1.
My database is on a external mysql database. The photos are on an NAS.

I can't use the FindDuplicates View. There is this error:
Digikam::FindDuplicatesView::slotAlbumAdded: Duplicates view is not active,
returning

Who can help - please.

Greatings,
anonykatz

Have you generated the fingerprints first?

The message is not an error message. Can appear when starting digiKam when
attempting to run a duplicates search album if the tab is not active. This
prevents a possible performance problem when starting digiKam.

Digikam is not usable anymore after this.
What can I do?

To find similar entries it takes more than 5 minutes.

I think it’s fixed in next 6.2.0

Check weekly Appimage build

I tried and it seems to works fine - thank you.

Is it planned to add a "non duplicate" feature to prevent them out of the
duplicates?

Is it intended default behavior for Digikam 6.0 to delete original images after they are edited?  It's doing that in my case and I cannot figure out anyway to stop it from doing that.  The settings under "versioning" "keep a snapshot of an edited image" have no impact.  If this is default behavior it's a horrible choice, and if it's not it's a horrible bug!  No matter what I try in settings, as soon as I save an image as jpg, the original is deleted.

Thanks,
Vern

I think the setting I had to check was "always show original image"  in the main view.  It might make more sense for that to be the default.

A real improvement in the speed of duplicates search with MySQL, will be
included in the next AppImage.
