[digiKam-users] retain the selected size of the selection - cropping of several pictures with the same dimensions

[Alex Christoph Bihlmaier]

hi there!
i have a bunch of pictures and want to crop on each and every picture
with the same selection size/dimension as in the previous pictures.
Saving somehow how big the selection previously was.

In case i want to adjust it, this should be easily possible by just
moving the edges/corners around.

Is this possible/if yes, how? :)

thanks!
Alex

Hi,

This feature exists in aspect ratio crop tool from image editor. region to crop is restored between image to process if there are the same orientation.

Best

Hi Gilles, thanks for your answer.

This works perfect when setting an aspect ratio.

But, when setting aspect ratio to "None" the size is not restored on the
next picture. The next picture has aspect ratio set to "None" and the
selection is some kind of default (1:1) and not the beforehand selected
size of the cropped picture.

Can you confirm this as a bug?

Cheers,
Alex

Yes, it's typically a bug. The crop region must be restored (if possible) between tool session, as when image sizes to crop are compatible.

But which DK version did you use exactly ? 5.9.0 or 6.0.0 pre-release (through AppImage bundle) ?

I am running 5.9.0.
Afterwards i tried the AppImage Bundle 6.0.0 Beta.
The behaviour is the same when aspect ratio is set to none.

Hi!
This works like a charm - digikam-6.0.0-git-20180727T191451-x86-64.appimage.

Is there a way to invoke the showFoto application directly from the
AppImage bundle?


thanks,
Alex

hi,

yes you can Showfoto is included in the bundle.

In fact, it's simple. the bash script included as main entry of the bundle has some options. Look here for details :
