Digikam/MS Windows

This page is dedicated to collect all the digikam/kipi bugs that will occur through the porting process until the final release of digikam. Please mark solved bugs. --SE

General

Maybe we need to be more precise about what exact release we are speaking: svn (with release number), Kde-Installer, Mingw or MSVC.

Bugs

Some Distortion filters' level could be set to 0

While it's not really a problem for Block and Circular waves it destroys the image. I guess there should be some constrain.

Showfoto crashing at importing folders

After adding a folder via File/Open Folder showfoto simply vanishes without a word (seems to only crash on folders containing png/jpeg files)

WISH: showFoto doesn't remember the last opened folder

It would be much more convenient if showFoto could remember the last folder that was opened. So, if you chose the Open file or Open folder - you'll be in the same location as before, when you've chosen previous image. This is implemented in most programs. And default location (if you haven't yet opened any folders or files) could be changed to Home directory or to Home/My images - now it's set to %KDEROOT%\bin\.

ShowFoto crashes on "Template Superimpose..." and "Apply texture..."

Just chose from menu Decorate/Template Superimpose... or Decorate/Apply texture... and see how ShowFoto willhang and slowly crash.

Open file dialog filter doesn't know about TIFF

showFoto is able to open TIFF files. Though, open file dialog can't see any TIFFs. To check it - open a folder that contains a TIFF through an Open folder dialog. Among other images (if there're any) there will be TIFFs.

Some sliders in Resize image are broken

Go to "Transform/Resize image" and slide the slidebars labelled "Width", "Height", "Detail preservations", "Anisotropy", "Noise", "Integral step". They will be 'jumping' from 0 to 1 (except Width and Height - their right limit will be 9999).

BUG Digikam r878658 Choosing path for database location

No matter what the user selects, a strange path will be generated:

C:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/username/C:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/username/C:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/username/C:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/username/

even much more longer. Trying to enter a path manually will also generate the same wrong path above.
