Missing in the Lighttable timeline


As you can see, where should be a graphic, there’s nothing. Any idea how to solve this?
Thanks in advance.

I’ve edited the thread title so people don’t think you’re talking about Adobe. :wink:

Don’t know about the issue, I’m afraid.

I just looked up the online user guide and typed in timeline. Possibly you have hidden it by using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+F

If problem is not resolved by this please state OS and DT version so more knowledgeable people might be able to help

No sorry, it is there, but it shows nothing.

What?! I never wrote anything about Adobe, what are you talking about?

You said Lightroom - there’s no such thing as Lightroom in darktable. The only Lightroom is the software by Adobe.

What is the recorded capture date of your images?

edit:
Can you expand the Image Information module and select an image? It should tell you the date.

what do you expect to be there? Usually it’s a timeline, in culling mode it’s a filmstrip…

The timeline in the screenshot covers the period 2000-2015. You do have pictures in dt which were taken in that period?
(There’s one small rectangle visible at the extreme left of the timeline, perhaps a wrong timestamp/missing date info?)

Sorry, of course I meant Lighttable.

No, it should appear a graph showing how many images there are in each time period mentioned below.

The timeline should be between 2015 and 2024. That rectangle is some type of error, I don’t know.

The recorded capture date of your images is from 2015 to 2024.
Yes, I can expand the Image Information module.

Oh, now I know what that rectangle is. It is the graph of some images (all images should apear like that) that were taken with a camera witch menu was reseted, so the date was wrong and was as 01/01/2000.


I corrected those images to the year 2023 and I almost solved the problem; however, the Ctrl + Scroll shortcut still doesn’t work properly. Thanks for your help anyway.

In that case it is absolutely normal your timeline is empty between 2000 and 2014. :man_facepalming:t4:

As you didn’t mention that issue earlier, I doubt anyone looked at it…

Now I figured out that it is a darktable bug.

What is a darktable bug ?

  • SCROLL and CTRL-SCROLL are working correctly for me, exactly as described here.
  • And from what you described, the problem with the displayed interval in the timeline was more likely a user error.
