![]() ![]() Images that were exported by darktable typically contain the full history stack if the file format supports embedded metadata (see the export module for details of this feature and its limitations). This copied history stack can then be pasted onto one or more images. Load sidecar file Open a dialog box which allows you to import the history stack from a selected XMP file. The mode setting is retained when you quit darktable – if you change it for a one-off copy and paste, make sure to change it back again.However, in “overwrite” mode all previous edits are irrevocably lost. The append mode allows you to later reconstruct your pre-existing history stack (because previous history items are retained in the stack of the destination image).It may therefore seem as if the “overwrite” mode did not accurately duplicate the existing history stack, but in this case, those automatic modules were added subsequently. If you use overwrite mode to paste history stack entries to images that haven’t previously been opened in the darkroom then the next time that image is opened in the darkroom, automatic presets will be applied to the image. Automatic module presets are only added to an image when it is first opened in the darkroom or its history stack is discarded.The “copy all”/“paste all” actions in this mode will precisely duplicate the copied history stack to the destination images (including any duplicate occurrences). ![]() In overwrite mode the behavior is the same except that the history of the destination image is deleted before the paste operation commences. If a particular module appears multiple times in either history stack only the last occurrence of that module will be processed. ![]() In both cases the pasted instance is placed on top of the history stack. If there is no such module, a new instance will be created. In append mode, for each module in the copied history stack, if there is a module in the destination image with the same name it will be replaced. In simple terms the “overwrite” mode deletes the previous history stack before pasting, whereas “append” concatenates the two history stacks together.Ī copied history stack can have multiple entries of the same module (with the same name or different names) and pasting behaves differently for these entries in append and overwrite modes. mode This setting defines how the paste actions behave when applied to an image that already has a history stack. paste Paste all items of a copied history stack onto all selected images. A dialog appears from which you may choose the items to paste from the source history stack. Beware: this action can not be undone! selective paste… Paste parts of a copied history stack onto all selected images. Beware: this action can not be undone! discard history Physically delete the history stack of the selected images. If any module appears multiple times in the history stack, these occurrences will be compressed into a single step in the history. compress history Compress the history stack of the selected image. You can override all of these exclusions by using “selective paste…” and choosing which modules to paste to the target image(s). The following modules are excluded from the copy operation: Information relating to internal display encoding and mask management is considered unsafe to automatically copy to other images and will therefore not be copied when using this button. If more than one image is selected, the history stack is taken from the image that was selected first. copy Copy the complete history stack from the selected image. Double-click on a history item to copy that item only and immediately close the dialog. A dialog appears from which you may choose the items to copy from the history stack. □module controls selective copy… Copy parts of the history stack from the selected image. Manipulate the history stack of one or more selected images. ![]()
