I have favored the Lightroom keybindings over the Darktable ones. So I tried to match Lightroom and Darktable functionalities as good as possible, and merge them together into a consistent keyboard shortcut layout. Either because a different keybinding is used, or because the functionality differs. There are shortcuts which work exactly the same - unfortunately this does not apply to every functionality. The problem is, there is not an easy one-by-one translation of the keyboard mapping. One of the first issues I had, when I tried to use my masterful Lightroom shortcut skills in Darktable was that somehow the keyboard was simply not obeying my commands. When I just turned off my computer, sometimes changed settings were not stored properly. Remark: I had to properly close Darktable in order to have my settings stored. Optional: Choose settings in the “cpu / gpu / memory” section depending on your hardware and operating system ( further information). look for updated “.XMP” files on startup: ☑️.store “.XMP” tags in compressed format: never.mouse wheel scrolls modules side panel by default: ☑️.overlay “txt” sidecar over zoomed images: ☑️.scroll to darkroom modules when expanded/collapsed: ⛔.expand the module when it is activated, (…): ☑️.position of the image info line: top left.The following settings should be changed from their default values: You open the preferences via the little gear icon top-right over the Image. This includes mostly settings accessible from the software menu. If you start fresh with Darktable, I would recommend changing only a bare minimum of settings. This is a requirement for the migration to Darktable. Optional: Image attributes and development steps can be also written to sidecar XMP files (must be enabled in the settings).
