Description Tom Cunningham 2018-01-07 15:34:07 UTC 
When I press the "Add a face tag" icon on the preview pane and attempt to draw a rectangle around a face, on the first face everything is fine.  But if there are other faces in the picture, sometimes (not always) the rectangle-drawing cursor (cross) will disappear between pressing the icon and reaching the face to be tagged.  A subsequent press for the desired face works OK, so this is really just an annoyance.

+1.

Crosshair turns to normal arrow mouse pointer right?
Comment 2 Tom Cunningham 2018-01-07 17:29:40 UTC 
Correct.

Learning/Neural Network API from OpenCV

Using digiKam 7.0.0-beta1, this problem is not reproducible here.

I close this file now. Don't hesitate to re-open if necessary...

Agreed, this is no longer a problem. I don't think it was fixed as result of a Face Recognition algorithm since that is not what we're using here but thank you.

Yes, I haven't noticed it as an issue since 6.0.
