--- Comment #4 from Maik Qualmann <metzping...@gmail.com> --- I'm not sure what you mean by "deactivate". We might be able to clarify it in a private e-mail, based on your e-mail address I assume that you speak German. You have tags in a tree, sometimes imported from images or created manually. If you remove the check mark, the tag will be removed from the image. If writing tag metadata is enabled, the tag will also be removed from the image itself. And yes, if the image is read into another database, the tag remains set there. Otherwise we would delete the database tags if we only worked with the database in this digiKam. I realize it's difficult to understand. So, since we keep getting reports of this problem, a solution has to be created. Although we have an option with the possibility to clean up the database, it is not understandable for (new) users why this exists. For digiKam-8.0.0 I will remove this option and make replacing the metadata in the database dependent on the respective metadata writing option being activated.
