If you need to perform certain actions on a large number of files at once, use batch processing. Add borders, edit the colors, apply various effects and filters, rename and resize images, recompress them, or perform a RAW conversion.
An example batch processing of images could involve applying a solarizing effect to a number of images. To queue images for batch processing and perform the actual processing, proceed as follows:
Select + or right-click the album's name and select +.
Set the effect to and click to determine the degree of the effect to be applied and display an optional preview.
Determine whether to rename or overwrite the original images or even have them removed after the transformation has taken place.
Set the target folder to hold the resulting images. If you do not want the new images to be written to the original folder, select and add a new folder or subfolder. Select the new folder with your mouse pointer.
Accept or modify the list of images queued for the transformation.
Click to initiate the transformation.
digiKam informs you about the progress and the success of the transformation.
