I am not stupid.
You probably have not completely understood my description.
## I was looking how to import images.
Not from a USB drive. Not from Camera. But, simple. Images from a folder, but
so they on import going to be integrated in album structure (date structure).
I am not adept of digiKam. And I could not find that simple action for tens of
minutes of decisive looking. Trying different variants and searching manuals.
Looks like I was doing it somehow before (or maybe I wasn't importing pictures
from time I created and album). But I can't find how to do it.
And I know, this is what application is for. Application need to have some
action on that, I probably can't find it.
I have a plethora of image viewers. And image editors.
Package is configured right.
I thought to fill question, bug-report (suggesting menu/action results to be
more understandable). But that seems too stupid to ask, before I find a way or
try and fail every path by myself.
## I tried to open images in digiKam deliberately.
To see what action is going to happen. Because maybe it going to ask me what to
do with them, or import them.
And this happens.
## Hanging a system with a couple of hundreds of instances can be considered a
usability problem.
I have that problem in different applications from time to time, as you
probably had also. When working with a lot of files, and hit enter not in that
window, by mistake, or choosing to open them in application,
inspecting/expecting application to treat them.
Action probably needs to be covered with some action processing or a test-case.
Or do a popup and point to launch showFoto instead. Or at least hang is a
report. It is from my standpoint.
Most good applications have that. showFoto, GIMP, Inkscape, Eye of GNOME.
I understand, from programmers perspective, digiKam not connected to open photo
action. And there is a default stud.
But users expect otherwise.
## User thinks:
digiKam manages photos, so it have some sort of action with them. If I open
photos with it, probably action going to be the most logical one, the most
useful one (and it probably is what I think). The way like I experienced with
applications before.
And it is hard to look at this user logic as wrong.
## Sorry, I open it ones. Because I don't know, do you read massages on
resolved, downstream'ed ones.
Regards,
Anton Latukha.
