Description Jan Ott 2013-11-01 22:18:43 UTC

For tagging my photos I use what is labeled "the keyboard way" in this description: 
http://www.digikam.org/node/641
When I start typing the desired tag, a list of matching tag suggestions appear. But this list is cut off at the right side so that the "tag roots" are not displayed properly. 
Example: For people I use tags with pattern /Personen/family_name/first_name. As you can see in the linked screenshot, there are three persons with first name Andreas. Their family names are not displayed so you can only guess which Andreas to choose.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open digikam in album view,
2. select Caption/Tags,
3. enter the first letters of the desired tag in the first box from the top,
Actual Results:  
A list of tag suggestions appears. The suggestions are cut off, not using all the available space to the right. Identical Tags with different roots cannot be distinguished.

Expected Results:  
The tag list should use all of the available space, showing as much as possible of the tag roots.

Created attachment 91536 [details]
tagitem.patch

In the tag Item string is a line break. Only for very large symbol (48) of the text is visible. This patch removes the line break.
