digiKam does _not_ sort tag, when adding/entering these For this reason, simple search and organisation procedures will fail- there seem not even to be implemented!! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. when entering tags, didgikam should sort these exceptionless alpha-numerical 2. this could happen while entering the tags, or 3. maybe, even better in backround Actual Results: At the given situation, digiKam does not allow to sort for tags whatever kind (as much as I understand) Expected Results: digiKam should seriously consider aiming a database-standard procedure concerning handling information internally. Otherwise, there is a strong risk, that users repeat adding tags and meashing up the tag's database this is a major issue, as this endangers the stability and compactiness of each database. I suggest to reconsider these, as they are widely accepted basics for database construction rules.
Hi Axel, where exactly do you see the tags not being sorted? Could you provide a screenshot and mark that area? Best regards, Michael
Created attachment 78819 [details] 130412_digiKam_Tags_Unsorted.png Michael: this refers to randomly sorted tags. They do not foollow _any_ sort order, appearantly. See pic with tags: "Hinweisschild", "Fahrzeug", "Wasser", "H", F", "W" Instead of "F", "H" "W". Hope I could explain, what I mean? I have just some basic knowledge concerning databases, but i know well, that there are three(?) steps for the normalisation of database content.

Hi Axel, my question was more about where in the digikam user interface you encounter the unsorted tags. In the left pane, in the icon view, in a menu, or in the right pane? Michael
Sorry, I missed the screenshot ;-)

As I indicated, this is NOT a minor issue but rather a major issue in the context of databases. You may want to check my wikipedia-link and some of the citations therein. Axel
Summary: Assigned tags shown below images in the IconView are not sorted. They are also not sorted in the tooltips.
They are probably sorted by (internal) tag id ;-) Sorting criteria: a) tag name b) tag path c) hierarchy depth a - b? c - a - b? b - c?
