warning, --library :memory: does not save you image setting to the database and does not alter your database. it does save the image changes into the <image>.xmp files and you can get the changes into your database by importing the images w/o the above commandline parameters. if you use the above commandline for a while and don't have the problem, you have narrowed the scope of the problem. to affect a solution/resolution, it is necessary to change your workflow to try to determine where/what the problem is, as no-one has acknowledged that they have this problem. if you don't want to try different things, we are wasting time trying to help you. > > > > > I could try to find a way to make this happen reliably, and then > > > > > report > > > > > that so it can be tested. > > > > > > > > > > I did move my config file between systems, and it mostly works, only > > > > > problem I found is that some watermark files seems to be missing. > > > > > > > > which "config file"? > > I haven't studied dt's use of config files in detail.

YOU must make the effort as apparently only YOU have the problem. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
