Description Milan Knížek 2011-01-09 11:52:26 UTC 
Version:           2.0.0 (using KDE 4.5.4) 
OS:                Linux

digiKam allows to quickly search through tags in full text mode, i.e. any tag, which includes the search string is shown.

However, while confirming the face recognition, only the tags beginning with the search string are shown.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Create tag "/People/Malkovich John"
Scan collection for face detection
Filter faces in "/People/Unknown"
Click on face thumbnail
Click to editable field for entering the name
Start typing "John"

Actual Results:  
Tag "Malkovich John" is not found.

Expected Results:  
Existing tag "Malkovich John" should appear below the search string.

We're using KDE's completion classes here. I'm not sure how to teach them different behavior.
Comment 2 Milan Knížek 2011-01-22 18:46:15 UTC 
I am not a developer: however, how does the quick search functionality for filtering the tags in album view work (in both Caption/Tags and Tag Filters)? I can type "John" there and the tag /People/Malkovich John is found.
Comment 3 Marcel Wiesweg 2011-01-24 14:04:12 UTC 
It's just a different technology, one uses the KDE KCompletion classes, the other uses a filter model for filtering, with a self written filter method.

I certainly accept this as a bug, but these line edit classes are not easy to deal with, sometimes simple changes take hours. It'll have to wait a bit.
