Thank you Maik/Gilles. I made the adjustment to enable native file, and it is now seeing that GIMP directory. I'm a Picasa refugee, am used to creating collages fairly quickly and easily with that program. But now I have a new Win11 machine and decided to migrate to digiKam because it is a currently maintained program that was able to import a decade worth of facial recognition tags from Picasa. Is the Print Creator tool with GIMP the best (or only?) way to create collages in digiKam?
I appreciate the help.
Bill Purves

Thanks Gilles. My version is 8.7.0 running on Win11
Build Date:
6/29/2025 11:01 AM
Build Target: RelWithDebInfo
Build Architecture: x86_64
Git Revision: 4a1...860f
Git Branch: HEAD
I note the discussion link provided is mainly reacting to MacOS version, but there's a note that Win11 might be similar, but I'm not sure what to do with that info.
Thanks,
Bill Purves

Hallo,
ich nutze neu UBUNTU 25.04 und digiKam 8.7.
Senden von Bildern mit Email funktioniert nicht.
DigiKam macht die Liste der Bilder nicht!
Mit 8.5 hat das gut funktioniert.
Was kann ich tun?
Wo sind die digiKam-Spezialisten die sich darum kümmern?
Vielen Dank
Heiner

I am new to digiKam, and am trying to print a collage. The print dialog is looking for a gimp.exe file, which I downloaded and installed, but the dialog cannot find it because it installed in my hidden file AppData, which the dialog can't see despite the fact that I'm showing hidden files in Explorer. Further, the dialog forces you to look for a file type of "gimp.exe", when it actually should be just ".exe". How do I get the dialog to find the gimp-3.exe file? Uninstall and try to reinstall into a different folder that's visible, if the install gives me an option? Then if I can do that how do I get the dialog to recognize it? Thanks for any help.

Hi,
If you use Snap bundle, It work in a sandbox env. and interoperability
with external applications is very limited. We don't manage Snap (and
Flatpak too) bundles, it's managed by 3rd party teams.
Use the Linux AppImage bundle that we support, there is no limitation
at all. It's compiled under Ubuntu 22.04 for binary compatibility.
Best regards
Gilles Caulier

Hi,
Which digiKam version did you use ? Typically, this problem have been
fixed before 8.7.0 release.

When installing GIMP, select "for all users." GIMP will be installed in the
"Program Files" folder, and digiKam should find it automatically.
For installation only for the current user, you need to enable the native file
dialog in the digiKam settings and set the Windows options to show hidden
folders so you can navigate to AppData/Local...
