--- Comment #2 from Maik Qualmann <metzping...@gmail.com> --- I can not confirm or reproduce the loss of metadata. Therefore, I suspect that you have enabled the metadata option "Cleanup Database ...". The creation of a new image ID is done only when moving between different collections because the album root ID changes. This behavior is exactly the same in digiKam 5.9.0. I will see if I can optimize this behavior. Maik -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
