Shotwell will not import ANYTHING

[Devon Garber]

Binary package hint: shotwell

When I try to import something either from my computer or from my camera it will not work. It grays out everything besides a folder and will not let me select anything.

If you select File -> Import From Folder..., Shotwell will only allow you to select a folder. It will search it and all sub-folders and import all files it finds.

If you want to import specific photos, you can drag-and-drop them from Nautilus directly onto the Shotwell window. It should import them then. If you drag a folder onto the Shotwell window, it will import it and all sub-folders, just like File -> Import From Folder...

Let us know how it works out!

I think the user is asking for the ability to select files instead of folders when importing. I've attached our ticket for this: http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2746
