Description Stefano 2016-08-09 14:34:31 UTC
When associating faces to pictures (after the process of face detection), the dialog right now is pretty confusing:

- The name selection from list is quite OK
- There is a red cross button on the upper right corner for "this is not a face"
- There is a "cross" button next to the check button, whose action is not specified

IMVHO, there should be the following elements, one next to the other:

1. The person selection list, it would be nice if hovering the list would highlight the entry like a normal combo
2. The "OK" button to confirm the typed name
3. A "Not-a-face" button, the upper-right corner overlay is too tiny and not coherent
4. A "don't care" button for all those faces related to people you don't know or you don't want to tag

I'm willing to work on this issue given minimal direction from core developers.

There is no difference between the "-" button on the bottom on icon view item with face overlay, and the red cross button on the top right corner. Both remove the selected faces registration to database.
