You might also look at DARKTABLE. That doesn't alter the image, rather it makes a parallel file of the changes that are interpreted when viewing with darktable. http://www.darktable.org/usermanual/ch01s03.html.php

darktable 1.6.0 is exactly what I was looking for. Thx!

Yes you can export the result but the imported file is not changed.

I can export 16 Bit photos now from RAW, but for the time being simple setup like gimp 2.8.14 is not capable of working with that, it only works with 8Bit. Does anybody have experience with Photivo? http://photivo.org/start Thx -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

What are you exporting as?

e.g. PNG, tif (16bit)

yes you want GIMP 2.9 or 2.10 for 16 bit functionality at all levels rather than just in the core ... Or is there a plugin-in?

or perhaps you have to set the 16-bit precision BEFORE you import...

<quote src="https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list/2013-December/msg00225.html">

In January/February, Michael Natterer and Michael Henning ported the FITS plug-in to GEGL and added support for more bit depth modes, namely 16 and 32 integers, 32bit floats, and double-precision floats. This makes it possible to study e.g. pictures taken by Chandra X-ray Observatory with full precision. </quote>

I tried to compile the newest version of gimp. But gegl complained about checking for GLIB - version >= 2.40.0... no There is 2.38.2-8.2 on my SuSE 13.1 . :-( That seems to be more complicated... Neither compiled GIMP 2.8.14, nor 2.8.6-3.2.2 from SuSE do have the precision switcher menu shown in the above libregraphicsworld page. But photivo is compileable with --with-quantum-depth=16 and that can handle the RAW file, tif and png 16 bit, if there is anything that is not doable in darktable.

After some experimenting I found out that darktable always makes up a new directory with the import date, thus resulting in possible double imports. :-(

Importing as importing into darktable's catalogue or importing as "copying" to disk from camera/card? Darktable provides full control of the catalogue import structure in the manner *you* configure. I cannot speak nor have I tried using darktable to copy from camera/card to disk. I use the cl, or mc to copy into a directory I have made in the manner I prefer.

Could not find anything in darktable to stop that. "override today's date" (import settings) does not work in darktable 1.6.0 .

There are later versions of darktable available, http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/toganm:/photography/openSUSE... I use this repo and have for some time w/o problem.

So I took a look at shotwell and this seems to be more comfortable for importing.

This comment really makes me believe you are speaking of "copying" or moving files from camera/card to disk. If you are uncomfortable with the command-line, try rapid-photo-downloader, dolphin, konqueror, mc, krusader, ..... ps: did you ever look at darktable preferences -> config -> session options -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
