https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348197

            Bug ID: 348197
           Summary: Headline in Image Editor is NOT Helpful
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.6.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Image Editor
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

´The window of editor window

>> Bildbearbeitung - Album "name of Album" - digiKam<<

This headline is more or less useless.
- Everybody knows, that the program "digiKam" has been startet. Within this
prog. die title "digiKam"  is neither helpful nor specific.

My suggestion:
>>path, Album, pic name<<

Where >>path, Album<< should be an optional setting, >>pic name<< always
present

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. see above
2. see above
3. see above

Actual Results:  
it is not a feature, it is an build in failure

Expected Results:  
name all windows:
- context sensitive
- specific
- as much as necessary, as less as possible


ergonomic details make software advantageous and preferable or a source of
misfit and anger

Are you a software interface ergonomy specialist ?

The application title follow all rules used by all graphical software
application. Application name must appear in window title.

Look application titles from Chrome, Firefox, VLC, Libreoffice. All apply the
same rules...

Gilles.

I need to smile about your question "software interface ergonomy specialist ?"
Of course I am not (others too, seemingly).

However, I know the German website
<http://www.ergo-online.de/site.aspx?url=html/software/titel.htm> since years.
As much as I know, they are a federal (governmental) office.

They describe in the chapters:
...  Software
    Grundlagen der Software-Ergonomie                          //  The Basics
of SW Ergonomics
    Ergonomische Dialoggestaltung                                  //
Ergonomical Design of Dialogs
    Ergonomische Maskengestaltung                                // Ergonomical
Design of Masks
    Einstellungsmöglichkeiten in SAP®-Systemen: Ergonomische Stellschrauben
                                                                               
          // Ergonomical seetings with SAP®-Systems
    Ergonomische Gestaltung von WWW-Seiten               // Ergonomical Design
of Web-Pages
    Software-Entwicklung & Prototyping                           //
Software-Development and Prototyping
    Verfahren zur Beurteilung der Software-Ergonomie    // Procedures to
Measure SW-Ergonomics

... Arbeitsorganisation und  


Just some small extraits- if you needed more?

There are always people to know s.th. better than on thought before.
Sometime it helps to see things as one never had seen these before to deduce
new ways.

Hope you will understand and take profit from some of my ideas.

KDE has already a HIG team to guide developers about common GUI design :

Thanks, Gilles.

I came across this topic, as I often work in image editor and more than once
asked myself what pic I am working on.... if there was a pics name in the
header, this never would have been an issue to think about...

Best,


Axel

Axel,

digiKam always show the image name in bottom left corner.

And the reason it shows digiKam - digiKam or Light Table - digiKam is because
this info is used by Alt-Tab and other mouse gestures which show all windows on
desktop and of course you need to know what program is in that window.

The changes are not hard to be done, but you must convince the whole KDE to do
the same.
