cheers. thanks so much for darktable! re undo: i wonder -- this is geeky -- but still, i wonder (*) if "we" could add a hook there (**) that could allow one to, e.g., do a "git commit " just after the file is written. while this wouldn't allow for the greatest user interface, at least one could

Hello, ​I have started this discussion​, so let me finish it as well. When I used darktable for the first few times I was surprised that there is no global UnDo on a user action. In the lightable part none at all. In the darkroom it doesn't reflect user action, but probably some kind of code behav

I've been a victim of my own inattentiveness and wiped all edits on images in the library. It sucked but it was my fault. It would have been nice to have either a write protect feature on edited images (my preference) or an undo. In my case, the undo was backups. On

That doesn't solve the issue when you make wrong step in working in lightable. You like to make modifications, but you also like to make step back if you make wrong one. I wonder how all the commands are processed.If there is no undo, it may be because there is not a single queue through which all

Just wondering if an "image write disable" that prevents any changes to the image (some what akin to the color buttons) might by a solution/option. It's not an undo but would protect image edits and could also prevent situations of accidental whole

Colin, that is rather unfortunate that there is no Undo. Do you know if there is reason for it? I can not press red dot again, well I can but that removes red from all the images. You know the starting situation was that only some of them had the red dot. --- Richard Vanek portfolio: www.richard

No there isn't. Ctrl-Z is something else. Your simplest approach at this point is to press the button for red again, turning it off for all selected photos. On Sat, 15 Apr 2017 at 10:23 Richard Vanek wrote: > Hello, > > I am rather new in darktable, please excuse if this is trivial question. >

Hello, I am rather new in darktable, please excuse if this is trivial question. I was marking my imported images by color. Giving red to interesting images as sort of pre-selection. Then I had few marked by red dot. I wanted to filter and see only those with red dot in lightable. I was looking ar
