I see the problem. It requires a very small fix, I need to find out where.

There are quite a few problems with the way this widget is implemented, one of
them you mention here. I am currently, though, a bit "uninspired" how to solve
all this convincingly.

That never was a problem for me, but I see now that the tag name is in German
the third of the four words, in English it's the last, so it is cut. Line break
is needed I guess.

One creates a toplevel tag, the other in "People/". Isnt it visible like this:

Then creating a new tag will be a worst-case scenario in case there are many
preexisting tags with the same first letters. Creating a new tag should be
visible.

There are three drop-downs:
- icon view, when typing
- preview view, when typing
- preview view, when clicking the arrow
Which are affected?

Should look like that:

There is only the face region directly from the database available as data, and
the image is then cropped when generating the thumbnail. I have not seen this
problem since the early days of face detection.

Yes it is!
