So you select the images you want to delete and then click this - but beware that it physically deletes from disk to the Trash bin (it should give you a prompt) - otherwise use 'remove' to remove from Darktable but keep the physical file. In Lighttable View at top right under 'Selected Images' there is a Trash option. (Let me post this, then try to copy my screenshots.) Please let me know if this is the way it should look. Not sure if (as a new user) I'm allowed t attach a screen capture, but I'll try. How do I 'right click' (if that's how it is done) to delete an image from DT and from disk? Is my way of 'importing' as described above correct?

Somehow I eventually got my 20 images to appear in the large 'box' on top, and they also appeared in the 'filmstrip' area down below when I click on 'darkroom'. In the 'lighttable' area, nothing works the way I expected. (I played around with the 'darkroom', and eventually things seemed to be working the way I expected. I think this is correct, but I don't understand the difference, and more importantly, which I should select. The first time I tried importing, I clicked on 'folder', but this time I clicked on 'image'. I guess I need to organize where photos will be before I use DT, so under that main folder I created a folder for 2020, and a few more sub-folders, and finally a folder into which I moved 20 images. I gave up on sorting this out, and deleted all the files located under my Darktable folder where I wanted my photos. Things didn't seem to be working that way, and eventually DT thought I had ten or so 'film strips'. I thought that 'import' would move images into a Darktable file system, similar to Lightroom.

Darktable is version 3.0.0 now.īefore I ask any specific questions, maybe the following would help me with the basics. I'm using a MacBook Pro computer, running Catalina. I reinstalled it yesterday, then watched a couple of videos, and I thought I was set.

I'm stubborn about these things, and I'd like to get it working. I installed DarkTable a few months ago, but got stuck 'with no way out'.
