           Summary: Hidden tags for archiving purposes
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: martinrehn hotpop com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

I wish there would be a possibility to mark a tag as "hidden", meaning it should not show up in the UI unless I select the option "show hidden tags" from the digikam menu or check the corresponding box in the tagging dialog.

Examples of tags that I would like to have, but that should normally be hidden:

"Printed"
"Burnt on a CD and sent to my brother for Christmas 2005"

Such tags are normally not relevant, but do become so when deciding which images to print next time or which ones to select for the next batch for my brother. Unless they could be hidden though, I would not add such tags to my collection, since they would add too much clutter.

Create a new tag below the root tag and call it "hidden". Create tags that should normally be invisible below the tag "hidden". Now you can hide the subtags when you close "hidden" and show them when you open "hidden". That wont clutter your ui that much.

Still, such tags would show up below the image thumbnail in the album
view or when exporting.
I understand the original post such that hidden tags would not visible
in these cases as well. So this is different from comment #1.

The solution proposed in Comment #1 is good for tags that are unrelated to other tags. But there are situations in which one wants tags in a specific place in the tag hierarchy, but needs them to be hidden. A example would be a tags for old schoolmates who you may never see again. You want to keep the tags in their place in the tag hierarchy under "People" however you don't want them to show up each time you tag pictures of your family.

A good example of a system that works like this is dotfiles in *nix. The uncommonly-needed files are hidden most of the time, but with the -a flag one could show all the files. This would be a welcome addition to tags and would solve some other bugs here as well, such as bug 144176.
