My timeline (not sure that is the correct word) has disappeared
The bar at the bottom of the Darkroom that shows all the images in the folder has disappeared. I’m running Windows 10 installed with .exe started on version 3.6.4? (cant remember exactly) just updated to 5.0.1 and the problem has persisted so now Im’ seeking help : )
What happens if you click the little white arrow at the bottom a few times?
its cycling through all the possible states but the timeline images still don’t show.
I can’t interact with it either like when i click on the void it doesn’t change to a different image. its been like this for hlaf a week ish. I’ve just been navigating with space and backspace in the meantime but that’s not ideal.
Do you have any collection filters active in the top bar or in the lighttable view modules on the right hand side?
only the folder path for basic navigation
can you search your darktablerc file and see what it says for the value plugins/lighttable/3/filmstrip_visible=TRUE ?
i see no such thing in my darktablerc file
should i add it
You can try. What version of dt are you using?
No luck
I was running 3.6.4 (half a guess cant remember exact version) but in an attempt to fix it i have updated to 5.0.1 so i am currently running 5.0.1
if you quit dt, rename your darktablerc to darktablerc.old and then start darktable, does the film strip come back?
no change
can you post a full screenshot on lighttable view?
Have you tried Ctrl + F ?
In the lighttable filemanager view, you can show/hide the timeline module in the bottom panel with the shortcut Ctrl+F.
(darktable user manual - timeline)
its not an issue that the module is minimized its i think actually not rendering
You have the timeline active. Ctrl+F might toggle between them?
no luck
Ah, I see. There is only timeline available in lighttable view. If you go into darkroom, Ctrl + F that should toggle the filmstrip.
In OP’s first screenshot (which is darkroom view) there is a film strip (sidebars don’t go down the full window height). There are no thumbnails displayed, though. (OP’s use of “timeline” is a bit confusing, as he also mentions images for that area).
The second screenshot (lighttable) looks ok.
i’ve tried and that hasn’t work unfortunately
