Bug ID: 476908
Summary: "Ignored" face regions are not written to file
metadata
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version: 8.1.0
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Metadata-Xmp
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: ericmitchell...@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In response to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=459537, a change was
submitted in v8.0 so that "Ignored" face regions are no longer written to the
XMP data of the file.
I do not agree with this change. Ignored face regions are valuable information
that should be persisted with the file along with other face regions. This
allows sharing this information with other programs. With the current change
in place, this data is not available outside of Digikam.
I have spent considerable time on tens of thousands of face regions to identify
those that are not of interest. I have also written python code to read these
regions and perform various tasks.
I would request that this either be reversed, or an option be provided in the
GUI for the user to select whether the ignored regions should be written to
file.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Tag face region as "Ignored"
2. Write metadata to file
3. Review face regions in file XMP data
OBSERVED RESULT
- "Ignored" face region(s) are not written to the XMP data of the file
EXPECTED RESULT
- "Ignored" face region(s) are written to the XMP data of the file
