Bug ID: 479768
Summary: Select Album doesn't show all child folders
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version: 8.2.0
Platform: Other
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

Initial display of Select album dialog with hidden top level folders for 2 out
of 3 album collections
SUMMARY
When selecting an image thumbnail and selecting 'Move to album...' from right
click context menu the 'Select album' dialog that opens only shows that there
are child directories for the last (/current?) album. Not any other separate
album collections.
This means a user may think that DigiKam doesn't know or won't allow them to
select folders within those other shown closed album collections.
Given that there's no visual arrow indication for top level album names, and
the user would need to double, not single, click to get DigiKam to expand those
hidden top level folders I feel this could cause confusion and problems for
many users.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. On DigiKam 8.2 for Windows
2. Ensure that you have more than 1 album collection of images setup, and that
each of those collections has at least some top level sub folders
3. Go into one of those album collections
4. Select an image thumbnail and select 'Move to album...' from right
click/context menu
OBSERVED RESULT
When the 'Select albums' panel opens observe that only 1 of album collections
is showing sub-folders by default and there is no expand/hide arrow icon on top
level album names to indicate that DigiKam knows/allows expansion of that album
to see its top level folders.
EXPECTED RESULT
Either that all albums would display their top level folders by default.
Or that album collections need expand/hide arrow icon associated with them
(like all lower level folders do) so that there is visual and easy mouse method
to expand and contract first level folders of each album's tree
