SUMMARY I have three monitors. When I run digiKam in the middle (primary/largest) monitor and do a slideshow, the face tags are displayed correctly. If I move digiKam onto my left monitor, the slideshow works but the face tags are missing. Title is also not displayed. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Run slideshow with images that have face tags. Enable tags in Slideshow setup. 2. Move digiKam onto a secondary monitor. 3. OBSERVED RESULT No tags displayed. EXPECTED RESULT Same as when on primary monitor. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: Win 10 home ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Yes, the problem is known. You have different hardware renderers in your system. Qt uses only one of these hardware renderers. We have no influence on this and cannot do anything. You have to see if there is a solution in the graphics card setting in your system to select a primary hardware renderer. But this depends on the drivers. Maik
I'm not sure why the slideshow is displayed correctly and the tags are not. Why would these two things be using different renderers?
Do the two monitors have different resolutions? You talk about face tags, but you only mean the normal text output on the left side of the slideshow? Maik
Yes the monitors do have different resolutions. The primary is a 4K monitor and the secondary is full HD (1920x1080). Yes I am referring to the tags displayed at the bottom left of the screen.
By the way, all three monitors are driven off the same video card (which happens to be on the motherboard) and therefore use the same driver.

Thanks Maik. Where can I get the version with your fix? Do I have to download the 'weekly'?
yes weekly version must include last change from Maik. I started compilation yesterday evening. Best
New versions of Windows bundle are available. Can the problem still be reproduced? https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Maik
Sorry, the problem is not resolved :-(
I have no idea at the moment. Is the information for file name, title or camera information visible when activated? Maik
No. No tags are shown.
Sorry, that was badly worder. No information is shown - Title etc
