*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 420658 *** I add this to bug 420658, it is the same tags input. In the Icon view I have no idea how we could make more space here. In principle, a popup should open. Maik |
Created attachment 128019 [details] Face nametag dropdown list too narrow SUMMARY The dropdown list that shows suggested names when searching for name tags for faces is too narrow if you have several similar long names or long tag paths. Example: I've organized my tags in a hierarchy, something like: People/ Collegues/ Company/ Roger Dodger Families/ Norm Gundersson/ Roger Gunderson Friends/ Jenny/ Roger Handsome so when I want to tag Jenny's friend Roger Handsome and search for his name, several Roger's show up in the dropdown list but it's not clear which one to choose. See attached screenshot. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a tag hierarchy with similar names in different branches; eg. 'Families/Gundersson Family/Roger Gundersson' and 'Families/Christensen Family/Roger Christensen'. For good measure, also add 'Collegues/Company/Roger Dodger' and 'Friends/Jenny/Roger Handsome'. 2. Scan for unknown faces. 3. Prepare to tag unknown faces. Go to Thumbnails view, People tab on left hand side. Click on the 'Unknown' name tag to see unknown faces. 4. Hover the mouse over an unknown face, and start typing the name Roger. OBSERVED RESULT As you start typing the first few letters of 'Roger', a dropdown list of names that begin with those letters appears. This is helpful, but the dropdown is not wide enough to show the full tag path and tag names, making it difficult to distinguish between the different Rogers. See attached screenshot for a real example. EXPECTED RESULT I expect Digikam to show the full path and tag name, like so: Families/Gunderson Family/Roger Gundersson Collegues/Company/Roger Dodger Friends/Jenny/Roger Handsome or maybe better: [tag name] in [full tag path] Roger Gundersson in Families/Gundersson Family Roger Dodger in Collegues/Company Roger Handsome in Friends/Jenny the dropdown list should automatically adjust its width to accommodate the full name and path. If dropdown box left-aligned the tag name and also left-aligned the tag paths, it would visually be very easy to pick out the correct one.
