Description Mikolaj Machowski 2005-11-30 19:45:16 UTC

Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc3.4.3 
OS:                Linux

With big collections list of tags can grow really big. Also
complexity of tags combinations can be increasing. In this
circumstances it is hard to know which tags are associated with given
picture.

That could be fixed in two ways:

a) Add one line with list of tags inside of Tags fieldset in C&T
   panel (above search field).

   Pro: most obvious place

   Con: in album view possible redundancy with visible tags in photo
   plates. But with C&T panel it is highly probable users will turn off
   additional info from album view (it could be turned off by default).

b) Introduce new field in status bar of IE.

   Pro: with increasing importance of tags in digiKam this is
   important information and probably deserves its own place always
   visible (as album name is visible in title bar).

   Con: currently visible info in status bar (name, position in
   album, zoom, dimensions) is purely "physical" while tags are
   "semantical". It may introduce some ambiguity.

In 0.9.0 there will be a right side bar in the IE which gives you comments & tags, also in digikam main view. In this setup you can still see the image in the middle part which shows you the currently assigned tags.

For 0.8.* you have to live with the current situation, sorry about that.
