[digikam] [Bug 361467] New: indicate (shade?) drop target when copying or moving images

[bugzilla_noreply]

            Bug ID: 361467
           Summary: indicate (shade?) drop target when copying or moving
                    images
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.14.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Albums View
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

A small usability issue:

When dropping a list of images onto an album / tag / ... and using small album
icons (16x16), it is not often easy to see which the drop target is - depending
on the mouse cursor and icon size.

During a drop operation (while the mouse button is still pressed) the drop
target (e.g. album name) currently below the mouse cursor should be shaded (or
otherwise highlighted).

Is this maybe possible for 5.x?

Reproducible: Always

Can you reproduce the problem using digiKam Linux AppImage bundle ? The last
bundle is available at this url:

Yes. There is no indication as to where the images will actually be dropped. I
would expect a background shading or border around the drop target while
hovering over each target so you can see where images will be copied / moved
before you release the mouse button.

I just tested the current master branch state, which is also the current
AppImage bundle version (5.4). I set the album icon size to 16. When selecting
multiple images and hovering them over some album in the album tree view (and
also tags tree view), there is a shade, though it is not really strong.
It is not that easy to see with the default design.

Which design do you use (main menu entry Settings->Design).
I switched to ShadeOfGrey where the contrast is better.

Can you test this?

I cannot reproduce it.

Oops, correct. The german translation hit me.

Can't reproduce on OS X with any color theme. No hover border visible here.

Drop target is still not visible (current 5.5 appimage on Linux 64bit). I
tested all "designs" (color themes, available from the settings menu) that are
available.

Any progress here, anything I can do to help?
Thanks!
