+# With the <menuchoice>Non-Destructive editing and Versioning</menuchoice> feature enabled, '''digiKam''' automatically hides originals and displays the latest modified versions of the photos. For example, if you process a NEF file and save it in the JPEG format, '''digiKam''' hides the original RAW file and shows only the JPEG photo. To disable this feature, choose <menuchoice>Settings -> Configure digiKam -> Editing Images</menuchoice> and make sure that the <menuchoice>Always show original images</menuchoice> option in the '''In main view''' section is enabled. To keep things tidy, you can then group the original and all its versions. To do this, select the photos you want to group, right-click on the selection, and choose <menuchoice>Group -> Group Selected Here</menuchoice>.</translate>

+# Instead of the conventional thumbnail view, '''digiKam''' lets you map your photos on a globe. Choose <menuchoice>View -> Map</menuchoice>, and you should see photos from the current album mapped on the 3-D globe.  You can then use the mouse to rotate the globe and the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. Obviously, the Map view displays only geotagged photos.
