Description uclodr+digikam 2025-12-17 17:02:00 UTC 
SUMMARY
Many thanks for this program! Just a frustation point in the workflow of tagging faces:

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
There is a big list of detected or recognized persons. Going from the top to the buttom, I confirm some persons, reject them, delete the face or open the picture with the face. Often I work on other detected faces in this picture and return by ESC. Sometimes I select several faces to confirm or delete them.

OBSERVED RESULT
Often, but not every time, the view jups to a total different position, at the top or far down. As a result I have to search the position I just worked at, which is very frustation.

EXPECTED RESULT
My expection is, that after this work, the "Personen" view stays at the same position or only a little aside not much more than needed to close the empty place.

This is not really a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402322
In 402322 a scan is running in the background a when detecting a face the view jumps suddenly.
In 513493 There is no background scan and the sudden moves happen, while working in the faces view.

Are you in thumbnail view or image preview when tagging faces?

In thumbnail view, we focus on the next face; this has actually been confirmed by users.

In image preview, the focus jumps to a "random" next face in the image.

I uses only faces view (thumbnail?).
Somtimes I open a picture with double click from there, edit some faces in this picture and return with ESC.

I tried to make it reproduceable. But I can't insert pictures here.
Maybe you can use this link?

Screenshot 1 shows, where I start.
I want to delete the five pictures, marked with the red X.
See the position of the slider on the right!

After deleting these pictures using the x-button in the upper right corner of one of them
screenshot 2 shows where I landed. Look at the slider on the right. It is far obove the start.
