Hey everyone,

New features

  • Added an image export dialog
    • Allows to batch export a selection of images with shared settings
    • Settings include: file format, image size, included metadata
    • The output file name can be freely defined using a pattern similar to the pattern already used for event folder names
    • More metadata customization and file format specific settings are planned for future versions
  • Added a toolbar button to show related files
    • Related files can be edited or exported files, or files that have a similar capture time
    • Can also be activated using the middle mouse button on Windows, or using Alt+click on macOS
  • Added a context sensitive toolbar to the thumbnails view

Enhancements

  • Images that have been exported now show a small overlay icon and are indicated as exported in the file relation popup
  • The path bar of the folder browser now accepts URLs in addition to paths
  • Adjusted the UI to fit better with Windows 11

Bug fixes

  • Fixed images in details view sometimes not loading properly
  • Fixed a possible crash when attempting to drag items in the notification pane
  • Fixed high-DPI screen detection on Linux
  • Fixed the “renew cache data” function to work for images that are not part of the library

  • Fixed dialog centering on Linux

Feel free to leave any feedback here or in the bug reports sub forum. Thanks for helping to shape a new way of organizing photos!

Please remember: Even though the software is reasonably stable at this point, always make a backup of your data, or work with a copy of it, when using pre-release software.
