Description HubMiner 2025-12-12 15:34:59 UTC 
ISSUE:
Face assignment action buttons (Confirm/Reject/Ignore) rarely appear on hover when multiple faces from the same suggested person are selected.
Fully reproducible, the issue is observed in the last few versions.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
* In People Menu, Unconfirmed, there are some matches and there are multiple people.
* CTRL-click or SHIFT-click to select a few pictures (within same face, don't go across multple suggested faces).
* Hover mouse pointer over any of the selected images, don't click.

EXPECTED:
* hovering mouse pointer over any of the selected images should show 3 action buttons (Confirm / Reject / Ignore).

OBSERVED:
the action buttons show up unpredictably, they usually do not.  

WORKAROUND:
right click one of selected images, ESC.  Buttons are visible after that.

I'm not experiencing any problems with the current Windows version; the overlay widget appears as always when the mouse pointer is moved into the thumbnail.
