digikam 5.0.0 on win 10 64bit

Martin
hi all
first of all congratulations for the new version!

so here is the list of my findings:

System:
Windows 10 64bit

DigiKam 5.0.0 32bit, as 64bit isn't working, but that's already known.

Settings/Design
when using GreyCard or LowKey you hardly can see the icons on the left and right and some other, also the text on buttons is barly visible


TIF files:
it does not show thumbnails for TIF nor can you edit TIF, it only starts the editor empty.

Video files:
it does not show thumbnails for video

ShowFoto:
open Folder:
when trying to open a folder it does nothing

open file:
it does not offer to open JPG or TIF and I couldn't find how to configure that.


showfoto and digikam settings:
if saving JPG2000  is enabled the slider for setting the quality is disabled, so to change the quality you first have to disable the saving of JPG2000, then move the slider and then enable the saving again. Same for PGF - JPG and PNG is working.

and yes the language you can see in the image at design it's quite a mixture at the moment - well I don't care much about but some others may I would think.

so those are my findings after having played with it for 1 hour. Still, I think it's a good new release, but for me it only will replace the one I use at the moment, if it possible to have it to work with video files and pdf. I know it's workin in Linux once you have configured it for dolphin, at least with pre 5 versions. but I wasn't able to get the dolphin plugins for windows to work.

Thanks & Cheers
Martin
