+<title>KPhotoAlbum 4.5 released</title>

+<description>
+<p>Today we are happy to release <a \
href="http://kphotoalbum.org/index.php?page=download-source">KPhotoAlbum \
4.5</a>, a new version of a photo management and tagging application for KDE. \
Read on to learn about all of these changes - there are quite a few, after all it has \
been a year and a half since KPhotoAlbum 4.4 was released.</p> +
+<h2>Android client of KPhotoAlbum</h2>
+<p>If you have an Android tablet (and a spouse or a kid that would like to see \
your images) then this is likely the most interesting change to you. If you don't \
have all of the above, then it likely doesn't mean much to you :-)</p> +
+<p>The Android client is available on <a \
href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kde.kphotoalbum&hl=en">google \
play</a>. It requires KPhotoAlbum 4.5 as the client isn't a stand alone \
application, but rather a viewer for your existing database running on the \
desktop.</p> +
+<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxtD7BG61Ro">View the video \
on KPhotoAlbum on Android</a></p> +
+
+
+<h2>Positional Tags</h2>
+<p>Another major feature in KPhotoAlbum 4.5 is positional tags. These allow \
you to tag individual sections of an image (say people).</p> +<p><a \
href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beEJ92bqDb4">View the video on positional \
tags in KPhotoAlbum 4.5</a></p> +
+<p>This feature was contributed by Tobias Leupold, welcome to the KPhotoAlbum \
team!</p> +
+
+<h2>Improved saving speed</h2>
+<p>When I did a git log to see exactly what had changed since the latest \
release, I was surprised to see this on the list, as I was rather sure it already was \
in the previous release. I was wrong, so <a \
href="http://kphotoalbum.org/index.php?page=news#item0081">read this blog on \
speeding up saving</a> to see what is in store for you.</p> +
+
+<h2>Lots of other changes</h2>
+<p>Below you can see a list of other changes and bug fixes, which is far from \
complete. +
+<ul>
+
+<li>New Feature: Added an Android client, which can display images from
+ a running KPhotoAlbum on the desktop</li>
+
+<li> New Feature: Tags can now be associated with an area of the \
image.</li> +
+<li> Enhancement: Backspace now shows the previous image in the \
Viewer</li> +
+<li> Enhancement: Implement file copy dialog in the Viewer.</li>
+
+<li> Enhancement: Added option to ignore specific EXIF comments.
+ (Some digital cameras set a non-configurable EXIF comment in each image.
+ With this option you can specify which comments should be ignored.)</li>
+
+<li> Bugfix (#254641): The current image is now highlighted when selecting \
images + using the keyboard.</li>
+
+<li> Enhancement: On first start, the image folder defined in KDE settings is \
used.</li> +
+<li> Bugfix: find thumbnail even for short videos (Thanks to Christoph Moseler \
for identifying the problem, and sending an initial patch)</li> +
+<li> Enhancement: Implemented the Page-Up and Page-Down key presses to select \
the previous and next image in the annotation dialog</li> +
+<li> Bugfix: Fix image import for kim files with external images.</li>
+
+<li> Bugfix: Fix crash when reading .kim files.</li>
+
+<li> Enhancement: Updated HTML darkJS theme</li>
+
+<li> New Feature: Maintainance->sort all by date and time (With this \
command, you don't have to worry about stacks, locked images, or similar)</li> \
+ +<li> Bugfix: Prevent thumbnail progress bar from showing indefinitely when \
no MPlayer is installed.</li> +
+<li> Enhancement: Make thumbnail cache readable by all users. (This makes \
sharing a KPhotoAlbum database actually possible.)</li> +
+<li> Enhancement: Implement caching for thumbnail files.</li>
+
+<li> Enhancement: Recalculate md5sum when image is changed by \
kipi-plugin.</li> +
+<li> Bugfix: Mark database dirty when images are deleted.</li>
+
+<li> Enhancement: Run without video thumbnail/length support when mplayer is \
missing.</li> +
+<li> Bugfix: Don't try creating thumbnails for images not on disk.</li>
+
+<li> Enhancement: Use cached QImage instead of invoking KIcon::pixmap on \
broken files</li> +
+<li> Enhancement: Add --info to script/kpa-backup.sh.</li>
+
+</ul>
+</p>
