> File grouping means that by default Geeqie will only show the JPEG file of each photo, while the RAW file and potential sidecars (e.g. XMP or PP3) are hidden away, but still only one click away. Then when a file is deleted all the files in the same group are deleted as well. Sidecar grouping works well by default, but if necessary it can be tweaked it in Preferences
I would be interested in reading OP's approach with sidecars, and how he configured Digikam for storing metadata (in file or in sidecar ? How does the two communicate between Digikam and Rawtherapee/Darktable ?)
- fidelramos 5y agoOP here. I honestly don't worry too much about full sync between Digikam and other software. In my workflow I process all RAWs first, then edit all metadata in Digikam. After that I very rarely have to come back to RawTherapee/Darktable so I treat it as a one-way flow. Last time I checked about keeping Digikam and other programs in sync, about 2 years ago, it seemed to me that it wasn't going to work seamlessly, so I decided to let it be. If someone has experience about it I would love to hear about it.
- fidelramos 5y agoI discovered ART [0] from other comments here, and it looks like it explicitly supports Digikam/Darktable metadata sync through XMP files: > Better metadata handling (thanks to the exiv2 and exiftool libraries), with (optional) support for reading and writing XMP sidecar files. I will check it out soon, ART has some very useful features that I miss from Darktable in RawTherapee. [0] https://bitbucket.org/agriggio/art https://bitbucket.org/agriggio/art
