(4) is the only option I can do from a dtdocs issue. If you would prefer one of the other solutions you should raise an issue against the darktable repository.
Big thanks! I will raise a new issue.
(sorry I edited the wrong issue :wink: )
I was adding an extra "crop aspect" for Instagram (4:5 and 1.91:1) according the manual.
So I added:
plugins/darkroom/clipping/extra_aspect_ratios/instagram=4:5
. But it didn't work! I didn't saw my aspect ration in the list regardless of my efforts. No extra ratio, but also no error. Not in the console or application. Strange isn't it?It turns out the code is has an undocumented "feature" called "remove duplicates from the aspect ratio list" (https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/blob/release-3.6.1/src/iop/clipping.c#L2263-L2285). This code prevents double aspect ratios, which makes sense if it would cause performance issues.
It is very hard for a common user to understand this feature and I would like to suggest a change for this feature.
My suggestion would be one of the following options:
Fix this "feature", please.
edit: provide correct link to the code
