Description Jean-Martial NDOUTOUME NFENGONE 2013-01-13 15:57:23 UTC
The setting "Configure DigiKam -> Metadata -> Rotation -> Show image/thumbnails rotated according to the orientation flag." don't apply to the thumbnails of faces' people for images only with an orientation flag and pixel data not changed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
For example:

1. Take an image with only an orientation flag: due to the "Configure DigiKam -> Metadata -> Rotation -> Show image/thumbnails rotated according to the orientation flag." setting, the image and thumbnails are correctly rotated (even if the pixel data of the image file are oriented differently);

2. Tag a face.
Actual Results:  
The face thumbnail is oriented as the pixel data file and not as the orientation flag.

Expected Results:  
As the image and thumbnail, the face's thumbnail must be rotated according to the orientation flag.

I dont understand the problem. Do you change the mentioned setting? Which thumbnails are shown incorrectly where and when?

Hello Jean,

Yes I can confirm this bung. In fact digikam doesn't rotate face tags from database.

I was working on implementing FaceTag write for digikam and came across to the issue that it doesn't update facetags. Now I have implemented rotation for images rotated pixel-by-pixel(not by exif flag).
 
My implementation is still experimental and it's not even in digikam's git.

I'm aware of this one and I will fix this one after stabilizing code that update tags.

Hello Veaceslav,

Thanks for your comment.

So, work in progress…

Comment 11 Marcel Wiesweg 2013-03-21 20:20:41 UTC
I can confirm this, it is easily reproducable.
Veaceslav: This is probably not related to your work in the branch, there is no "new" rotation involved, any image with the rotation flag set by the camera exhibits this behavior. I suspect an interaction when rotation-by-database was introduced.
