Historical Diffs #4

Closed pmig closed 10 years ago

pmig commented 11 years ago

Hi,

Observed: You can only make a diff between the last 2 screenshots.

Desired: Two drop-downs or datepickers where you can select which screenshots you want to compare.

I would really love to see this feature.

Ja what should I say. :+1: ;) maybe tomorrow.

Selecting "random" dates will not be possible though, because imageMagick runs directly after each photo session comparing it to the latest ones.

Generating all the diffs all the time seems to be a bit overhead to me and would slow down the process heavily.

So I would go with dropdown inlcuding older diff's but only pictures in row will have a generated diff.

Fine for you?

If you could compare the latest one with the last 10 runs it would be fine. So you can see what changed over a bigger time period.

I reread your comment. You think about just storing the last 10 diffs. So there will only be 1 imageMagick run (per screen) for one PhotoBox run.

This is also fine for me and might solve the problem even better.
