Bug ID: 420400
Summary: Emptying Trash does not provide any feedback that it
is active/running
Product: digikam
Version: 7.0.0
Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Albums-Trash
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: madal...@sharklasers.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
With a few thousand 130Mb files in the digiKam trash folder, I selected Delete
=> All Items Permanently, and hit "yes" to start the process. Nothing seemed to
happen as there was no feedback (that I could see) of any kind.
At this point I assumed that it had not initiated the delete and tried again,
with no result.
About a minute later the original "empty trash operation" finished, but during
that time I had no idea if the delete was active, or if something had gone
wrong.
I am not sure quite why deleting around 2000 files from a local SSD drive
should have taken so long, but ultimately thats not the primary issue here,
although it is obviously related.
The real issue was that there was no feedback to indicate that the "empty
trash" operation was in progress. Shouldn't there be some kind of feedback when
an operation is active?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Delete a large number of large files
2. Got to digiKam Trash
3. Selected Delete => All Items Permanently => yes
OBSERVED RESULT
No indication that a delete was in progress
EXPECTED RESULT
An indication that a delete was in progress
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 10
digiKam Version: 7.0.0-beta2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I don't believe that there were any other active digiKam processes active when
I ran into this issue.
