Re: Setting up digiKam to use darktable as Image Editor

Hi,

It's loaded in image editor:

https://docs.digikam.org/en/setup_application/editor_settings.html#raw-behavior

3rd options "Always open the Raw Import Tool to customize settings".
Select the external "Darktable" option in the combobox.

Best regards

Gilles Caulier
