           Summary: Hidden tag to password-protect particular pictures
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: kv11111 mail ru


Version:           0.9.2 (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Sometimes I allow my friends or relatives to browse my photos with digikam. But there are some photos that I do not want to show them. This is quite common situations, AFAIK even F-spot has something like hidden tag to help with it. It would be cool if digikam will have something like it too.

For example one can implement special "hidden" tag and include images with this tag in the lists only after entering the password. Encryption of image files would also be cool but not absolutely necessary (at least hidden tag will prevent looking at hidden images accidentally).

This is quite the same than http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109943 (Secure password protected albums - View protection). This bug is marked as WONTFIX with the solution : "set the rights in your filesystem carefully"

I agree with the reporters that this is not a solution. This kind of problem is very common and rights settings are something for advanced users so the solution with a special tag (an option in the album properties) seems OK to me.

"Sometimes I allow my friends or relatives to browse my photos with digikam"
-> and most of the time, I think you're not very far of your friends, or at least, they will not search in your computer but just use digikam...

it's not perfect but it is not intended to provide top level security and just work in case like this one

I think that the use case is quite common:
  you want to show pictures to someone but you don't want to accidentally show them some of the pictures (or have them accidentally pop up in search results).

I think that having the information stored in a tag, and having a way to toggle whether to show or hide the pictures would be very handy.


Encryption would be overkill, requiring non-trivial effort and serving a much narrower use case.

Is the intention of this request to tag individual images, or whole folders?
