DigikamImagePlugins are add-ons designed for the image editor and viewer programs, digiKam 0.7.3 and ShowFoto 0.2.0. The plugins serve to enhance the functionality of these applications.
One of the key features of DigikamImagePlugins is its ability to improve images. Users can adjust their photograph's histogram levels manually using the "Adjust Levels" feature. The "Adjust Curves" tool allows users to manipulate photograph colors using curves, while the "Noise Reduction" filter reduces photograph noise. Other features like "Lens Distortion" and "White Balance" are available exclusively in CVS.
DigikamImagePlugins also offers transformation tools including "Free Rotation," "Shear Tool," and "Perspective Tool." These plugins allow users to rotate photographs freely, shear them horizontally and vertically, and adjust their perspectives. Additionally, with "Blowup Photograph," users can enlarge their photographs without sacrificing image quality.
For those who want to edit their images, DigikamImagePlugins offer several image tools such as "Template Superimpose," "Add Border," "Insert Text" (CVS only), and "Apply Texture" (CVS only). Meanwhile, special effects plugins simulate oil painting, charcoal drawing, infrared film effects, and more.
Installation is easy, requiring the user to export WANT_AUTOCONF_2_5=1 and KDEDIR=KDE_installation_dir_on_your_system, make -f Makefile.cvs, run ./configure --enable-debug=full, followed by su, and make install. Overall, DigikamImagePlugins are an extensive collection of tools for enhancing and manipulating images in digiKam's Image Editor and ShowFoto.
