Exporting from digiKam album view to local filesystem?












4















In the album view I am able to select multiple photos and have the option to export to many many different types of destinations under the 'Export' menu (Dropbox, Flickr, Google Drive, Imgur, etc.), but I don't see a mechanism to export directly to the local filesystem.



How can I export multiple photos to the local filesystem using a similar export wizard that lets me specify output format, resolution, and file naming?



digiKam version 4.14.0

          Copy and Paste



          Not exactly what you were asking for, but I was looking for a simple »export to folder« as well.



          In the Edit menu there is Cut, Copy and Paste. So I used Copy with my selected files, opened Finder and pasted into the target directory. This copied the file selection as it is. Maybe this helps. It is a simple solution anyway.



          (Drag and drop worked, however, I had no chance just to copy, it always moved. I have no clue why.)

            I had a similar problem but my original photos were in RAW format and copying them to a new folder doesn't help. In my case, I used the Batch Queue Manager in digiKam to convert my pictures to PNG format and place them in another directory. Now I can upload my photos to Amazon (or whatever) without a problem.
