Another important reason, why DigiKam has created a lot of interest is because its open-source and you’ve a lot of community related support and early access to the new updates made in DigiKam. DigiKam helps you to manipulate images with ease. This is a great tool for photographers and graphic designers who use only Linux. DIGIKAMĪnother free and open source image editing software that impressed everyone is the DigiKam Photo editing software. Equipped with a lot of sophisticated tools and plugins available, you can every photo editing job done easily with the help of GIMP. Since the developers didn't add that, it seems likely that the x icon is superfluous and is mainly there because some people expect a close icon.GIMP has been a proven image editing software highly praised by photo editors, graphic designers, illustrators and photographers. If the x icon and minus button did different things, you'd think the functionality would be replicated in the section where you view the entire photo.
You can then choose to Confirm or Remove the tag. When you view a whole photo with faces detected but not verified, it shows boxes around all the faces. The other is that the x and minus button simply do the same thing.Īnother piece of evidence that the x icon and minus button do the same thing is in another section of the app. The minus button also rejects it, but it's possible that the x icon is for thumbnails that aren't actually a face (so the algorithm can learn from its mistakes), and the minus button is simply used to delete the face data from someone you don't care about (person in the crowd, picture of a painting, your estranged lover, etc) without causing the algorithm to think it made a mistake in detecting a face. There's no hover text for the minus button, but when you hover over the x icon, it says "If this is not a face, click to reject it." I don't know if the backend algorithm defines a difference between thumbnails where you click the x icon vs the minus button. Even if the program has a suggestion in the unconfirmed section, if you click the minus button, it doesn't simply remove the suggestion and keep it in unknown rather, it actively removes the face data from the photo (you'd have to go back to the photo manually and re-add the face along with the correct tag). The minus button and the x icon both seem to do the same thing in that they both remove the detected face data from that portion of the photo. The check mark button obviously sets the tag for the recognized face. Much easier to see is the bright blue border around the selected photos. So it really isn't a special clickable icon. Oddly, clicking exactly on the plus icon removes your other selections and just selects that photo, rather than adding it to your selection.
Otherwise, hovering over the photo shows a plus button. If you select one or more photos and hover over one of them, the icon instead shows a minus icon. The plus/minus icon is merely an informative icon (albeit an poor one, in my opinion) of whether that photo is selected. same as the minus-button in the Unknown section).įrom my testing, these are the button functions: It can be used to mark faces as ignored (i.e. In both the Unconfirmed view and when viewing full images, there is a third buttons now (the one with the arrow): I just upgraded to 7.5.0 and found that there was some change. As far as I know there is no easy way to undo this. It is used to remove a face area completely and should be used for cases when something was wrongly detected as a face. The red button in the top-right corner always has the same function (tooltip: "If this is not a face, click to delete it"). There does not seem to be a way to mark a face as ignored in this view. When viewing the full photo, the minus-button on the face regions in that photo is used to delete the face region completely. it tells the software that this is not the person it thought it is. I cannot double-check this right now but I think in the Unconfirmed section the minus-button does not ignore the face but just puts it back in the Unknown pool. So clicking this button acknowledges that the area indeed shows a face, just one you don't care about. When clicking it, the face disappears from the Unknown section and instead appears in the Ignored section (so you can go there and revert your decision later). The tooltip says "Mark this face as ignored". Note, however, that the minus-button behaves differently depending on which view you are in: This answer refers to digiKam 7.3.0 (the behaviour may have been different in the past).Īll the buttons have tooltips which give some insight on what they are doing.
