You can't have your cake and eat it too! You either want your files' meta-data read and displayed or not. As a KDE4 user -- user, mind you, not developer -- I got angry when reading the comments on this bug report, and I greatly admire the maintainers for staying so calm and polite in the face of such abuse. The issue is that meta-data should be displayed for files not yet indexed. A possible solution is to index files that are displayed in the viewport or selected, possibly discarding the info as you go, depending on the speed of the operation. A separate mechanism for meta-data extraction seems like code duplication. As a user of nepomuk, I would greatly appreciate the results of the indexation to be added to the DB. This would allow me to direct the order of indexation, which is useful when you want to browse newly copied directories. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
