they are not "cryptic icons" but representations of missing images in your library. Images which you have relocated or deleted outside of dt and now dt has no knowledge of them. Utilize dt to perform these actions and you will not experience "cryptic icons". there exists a shell script to remove them from your library: /usr/share/darktable/tools/purge_non_existing_images.sh and from your cache: /usr/share/darktable/tools/purge_from_cache.sh -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri 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
