Crop a picture with four face tags attached. Saved as a new version. The face tags still exists but the representing rectangles do not match the faces.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Take a picture with face tags attach
Start image editor
Perform aspect ratio crop
Save image a new version
View the new file

Actual Results:  
The face tag exists but the rectangle does not match the face anymore

Expected Results:  
The face tag rectangle matches the face

It's a known issue. Will be fixed when metadatagroup's specifications will be fully implemented. So far  only rotation adjust face tags.

Veaceslav,

Any progress on this file ?

Comment 3 Veaceslav Munteanu 2014-08-26 19:50:34 UTC
No, still have a lot of other reports on my list...
Comment 4 caulier.gilles 2015-05-10 19:04:18 UTC
Veaceslav,

It still valid with current implementation from git/master ?

Comment 5 Veaceslav Munteanu 2015-05-11 21:57:10 UTC
If nobody worked on it, then probably is still valid.. :)

Similar thing happens on linux with RAW photos which are vertical and presented this way because of the exif information. 

The thumbnails of automatically recognized faces are shown correctly, but when you show them on the photo they're marked in wrong positions and their aspect ratios are wrong. 

Also manually tagging faces on vertical photos (at least in RAW format) tends to create misaligned thumbnails of faces, even though they show correctly on the photos in question.

digiKam 4.11.0 Windows installer is available for download :

Comment 8 Jens 2016-01-30 21:29:33 UTC
I am witnessing a similar issue on Linux (Ubuntu LTS 14.04) and Digikam 4.14 (from PPA).

A RAW (RW2 Panasonic) file which has been rotated into portrait mode during import has two face rectangles. When I rotate this image using the buttons in the previewer, the face rectangles are (once) moved to a different location on the image - and after this first incorrect displacement they stick to the location on the image even with further rotations.

Can you please double check whether this issue exists in 5.x? Thanks!

Given this is 7 years old, isn't the interim answer to remove all the face regions after crop? I'd rather have no face regions than incorrect face regions.

As long as the face tags would remain assigned to that image (i.e. only the regions would be invalidated/deleted), that might be a reasonable interim solution.

7.0.0-beta1 is out with new Face Recognition algorithm based on Deep
Learning/Neural Network API from OpenCV

https://download.kde.org/unstable/digikam/

Please test and give us a feedback

Thanks in advance

Problem still present. Cropping does not remove face regions which are wholly or partially outside the new image after crop.

Meaningless ghost face regions are still displayed in Preview.

Preview After Crop of Test 4.

Test4 face region not displayed correctly. Test 5 and 6 should have the regions deleted in my opinion.

Added bug 429219 which is related to this issue. Essentially the MWG Guidelines provide a way to identify a photo containing mismatched face regions. When a crop, resize or rotation operation occurs the values, if correct to begin with, must be updated along with the existing face regions.

Maik, 

I remember that some works have be done around this topic in the past, but i don't remember when exactly...

Comment 22 Maik Qualmann 2023-05-06 06:22:05 UTC
For some tools yes, flip, rotate. Not yet for the crop or resize tool.

Comment 23 David 2023-11-07 22:50:29 UTC
I signed up to this bug tracker to report this issue. I am quite stunned to find that it was first reported in 2011. This is a very common part of my workflow, having tagged hundreds of thousands of images and now doing some edits. Wish I'd done it the other way round now.
Comment 24 hardy.public 2024-01-30 11:19:15 UTC
In 8.3.0 pre-release, the cropped image now doesn't contain any face regions which is good as an interim solution. Ideally though, I think a cropped image should have its face regions recalculated where possible. Perhaps this should be a separate feature request?
