SUMMARY Could it be possible to increase color tag capability? My wish is to have all colors combination, not one only And possibly make this compatible with Darktable through the Sidecar XMP
Hi, The original color flags rules are inspired from Apple Aperture, Nikon NX, and Adobe LR. All use only one color flag to tag an image. What's the scheme of color rules from Darktable ? How these colors are recorded in XMP ? Gilles Caulier
Maik, For this entry it sound like a more complex approach of color tags. Mixing colors is the same than mixing keywords in fact, which is more adapted to be presented in GUI. I cannot imagine a rainbow identification in icon view... this will be a mess. I vote -1 for this entry. Gilles

I also vote -1 here because I don't know of any standardized metadata that would manage it. Maik

The colors are standard across almost all photo mananagement applications. I can't see how this would work and preserve interoperability. -1 Cheers, Mike
-1 for me too...
Thanks for addressing the wish. Sorry for the duplicate at Bug 499646 (In reply to caulier.gilles from comment #1) > The original color flags rules are inspired from Apple Aperture, Nikon NX, > and Adobe LR. All use only one color flag to tag an image. I appreciate this insight. I made the wrong assumption based on my experience using darkTable. > What's the scheme of color rules from Darktable ? How these colors are recorded in XMP ? Apparently darkTable "cheats" by adding it to their xmp sidecar. And it seems the first of the chosen color labels is recorded to XMP standards. > <darktable:colorlabels> > <rdf:Seq> > <rdf:li>0</rdf:li> > <rdf:li>1</rdf:li> > <rdf:li>2</rdf:li> > <rdf:li>3</rdf:li> > <rdf:li>4</rdf:li> > </rdf:Seq> > </darktable:colorlabels> Just adding a morsel of insight here. I'm also now convinced to -1 this feature request. And will adapt my labeling tact to fit the universal standards.
