Description Reiner Nix 2010-02-04 23:46:37 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

When assigning tags, it would be fine if it is possible to always automatically assign also the parent tags.

E.g. having a tag tree, where "A" is the parent tag of "AA" and "AA" is a parent of "AAA". So when selecting tag "AAA" the tags "A" and "AA" should always be automatically selected.

Comment 3 caulier.gilles 2010-02-10 06:58:54 UTC
Well, i recommend, to test 1.1.0 release or better, to try new code from trunk (1.2.0) where a lots of implementation have been rewritted using Qt4 Model View

Comment 4 Johannes Wienke 2010-02-10 11:22:24 UTC
but this wasn't changed. So this is still a valid feature request.
Comment 5 terri.bugs 2010-05-29 15:41:41 UTC
This is already implemented in digikam 1.2.0. Just choose any tag in the right sidepanel, right click, and from the opening menu go to "Toggle Auto" and select "Parents". Also Children or Both are available.
