The good: Face recognition is easily one of the greatest features ever. And the current interface is pretty slick. But what I find is that I go to People, and then Unknown, and then I click on a face and I can enter a name in the box that appears beneath it, and it autocompletes wonderfully to known names and I can click the Check mark and move on. It remembers the name and I can rapidly categorise a series of similar faces in this way. The problem: It's awkward to change between names involves a lot of clicking and typing and moving from mouse to keyboard and back. Improving this workflow would rock. One idea I have is to remove the keyboard needs, so my hand can stay on the mouse. Enter a stamp ,mode and each of the faces in the People list to the left is now a selectable stamp. I can just click the face and now my stamp is for that name. I cab then click all the faces I think belong to that person. I can quickly swap by clicking another. The mouse pointer might look like a stamp and have the name beside it to remind me. Anyhow, just a thought. It keeps the whole workflow with the mouse rapidly clicking faces that I want to stamp with a given name. The terminology of course is not important (to me), this could be use a stamp metaphor to a tag metaphor or a naming metaphor or whatever fits into the Digikam world best.
Do you know that you can drag and drop unknown face(s) onto a face tag in order to assign the name to the unknown face(s)? Maik
Hi all and Happy New Year 2023. Bernd, i add a screen-cast at end of the digiKam handbook section corresponding to Face Management. Look here: https://docs.digikam.org/en/main_window/people_view.html Best Gilles Caulier
Maik, I think this file can be closed as we respond to the user with a solution based on D&D. Right ? Gilles
