            Bug ID: 397872
           Summary: Slight improvement of Geolocation window layout for
                    better efficiency
           Product: digikam
           Version: 6.0.0
          Platform: Appimage
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Geolocation
          Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: jens-bugs.kde....@spamfreemail.de
  Target Milestone: ---

When I use the geolocation editor, I frequently need to preview images in a
larger size to see where exactly they were shot. Then I assign coordinates
using drag & drop into the map, assign height by selecting all images and
right-clicking and selecting "assign missing height info", and clicking on the
"reverse geocoding" button.

There are some small changes that would make using the Geolocation Editor much
more efficient.

1. When double clicking on an image to preview it, show this preview in a
*separate* area below the GPS, Undo, Geocoding etc. tabs so it is always
visible when a single image is selected and one does not need to change the
active tab to preview an image.

2. Also enable preview of videos - they don't need to be animated, just show
the first frame or the largest available thumbnail.

3. In the "Reverse Geocoding" tab, there are three options at the bottom. The
button labeled "More settings" just reveals the "Write to XMP" option. I think
we don't need this button. And the "Assign reverse geocoding" button can be
changed into a checkbox "Automatically assign reverse geocoding", see next
point.

4. This is actually the most important improvement: Make Digikam (optionally) 
automatically assign reverse geocoding info and height info as soon as a
location metadata is added or changed. If available, also speed and what other
options are there.

What do you think?
