Screenshot of digikam with an usual example

Normally we shoot three or more pics when we make group photos. The most of them the people stand at the same position. If you need to add a tag for each person on the picture it needs a lot of time.

Maybe it would be very easy to copy the regions with the tags from another picture, when I click first on the "add a face tag" button and then the picture in the thumbnail bar, from which I take the face tags. After this action maybe I have to change the position of the face tags, but this is much easier than creating new face tags.

This is the goal of Face Recognition (not face detection) which is under development.

Maybe I don't trust 'automatically' recognized face mechanism and I'd like to do the job manually. I think my way is very easy to develop and to use. Much easier, I think, than automatic face recognation...
