SUMMARY
Hey Folks, Fabulous Application and a god-send to me for sorting my massive
photo collection of Travels & Family History. I have been utilising the Search
Tool to easily locate specific Tags, Albums, Photos, etc, however have a small
bug-bear that I would like to put forward as a Wish on later versions.
When in the Advanced Search Tool, and under Albums., I have encountered this
scenario:
If you have subfolders that sit under an Album Topic, such as... "Travels >
Tourist Attractions > Museums", "Photos From 20xx > Museums > Art", etc, and
you wish to include the subfolders in the Advanced Search, you have to manually
select each sub-album to be included within the query, if the Root in that
Branch doesn't have any images, but the sub-folders do.
It can be a bit time-consuming to set up each search if you have many
qualifying sub-folders under a master topic/folder. What is lacking here is a
Recursive Folder Option, which you could select to state that you want the
specific Album Folder AND all sub-folders under that branch selected within the
query, rather than having to manually select them.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 11 24H2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have noticed that there is a Recursive Folder option in the DigiKam Settings
for Maintenance, etc. Can this not be factored into Advanced Searches, too?
