Viewing pictures matching multiple tags?

[Amos Shapira]

Hello,

Yesterday, for some formal reasons, I needed to find pictures were certain people are tagged (e.g. all people from a certain family).

Another interesting query would be "photos with Person A tag and Place X tag".

Is there a way to ask Digikam to filter photos which have multiple tags attached to them?

I use 0.8.2 on Debian Etch.

Thanks,

--Amos

Please use B.K.O for all wishes using 'Tags' component section :

http://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=digikam&component=Tags&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED

Please check if there is already a similar wish like you want to prevent
duplicate.

Thanks. The list you posted didn't contain something like what I'm after but when I started to report a wish-list I found  bug 115160 which is reported as "closed" (maybe this is why it wasn't included in the query link) and which reports this to be implemented. The bug was reported against 0.8.0 but closed by you on September 4th 2006 without any mention of which version it was included in. I suppose it's later than 0.8.2 (the one I have on Debian Etch)?

Thanks very much for creating DigiKam, it's by far the best photo management program I've ever seen.

Cheers,

--Amos

Couldn't one just define an Advanced Search for each of those tasks?
I just tried this with 0.9.0-beta2 and it seemed to work.
Not sure if this would work in 0.8.

Best, Arnd

Arnd,

Nothing will change in 0.8.x branch (excepted perhaps important bugs). We will
concentrate work to 0.9.0 serie now. In all case all new wishes will be done
in 0.9.x.

Gilles,

sorry this seems to be (again?) a misunderstanding:
I was trying to explain to Amos, that I think
that in 0.9.0-beta2 one can do what he wants.
As Amos is using 0.8 I was trying to point out that I don't know
whether that functionality (Advanced searches) does exist in 0.8.
For clarity I maybe should have added the remark that he should
try out 0.9.0-beta2 (with the notes for debian sarge
I posted on digikam-devel this should work pretty well on debian etch).

Best, Arnd

Thanks Arnd, that's what I understood from your previous post. I'm saving your message around to when I find time to test this suggestion (hopefully already tonight). I strongly prefer to avoid straying from the path of Etch right now as I've just upgraded to it from Sarge+Backports and like the feel of having a clean(er) system. However since you point to some remarks about building debian packages for Digikam I might give that option a try as well.

Cheers,

--Amos

Well, it is not about building debian *packages*, just how to build
from the beta tarballs,
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/digikam-devel/2006-September/007282.html
Now looking at this, it turns out that the messages is
archived in a corrupted way!
(The reason seems to be that one line started with "From" ....).
Below are the notes again, hopefully complete

The installation (as non-root) goes to a separate place
and does not interfer with any of the debian packages itself,
so your system should stay clean ;-)

Best, Arnd


Installation notes for digikam beta
===================================

Warning: the following are just my personal *notes*
on the installation on debian sarge.
Change the installation path to whatever suits you.



mkdir /tmp/TSTDIGIKAM
cd  /tmp/TSTDIGIKAM
wget \
http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/0.9.0-beta2/digikam-0.9.0-beta2.tar.bz2

Sure, that's the idea of Advanced Search.
Amos' question shows that advanced search is a powerfull but very well hidden
feature. Something to improve in the future (link or button in the search
tab?)

Last night I got around to quickly test this and it worked in a very limited way - it seems to have found all the pictures in which the three tags I looked for applied, but only from a certain folder - I suspect it applied to the "current folder" at the time I selected "advanced search". I saved the search with its own name but re-running it while in other folders ( e.g. in the main folder) didn't seem to change the results.
I didn't have time to investigate more of it last night. I'll try again later.

Is this the way the search is supposed to work? I didn't see a way to change the folder it looks at (then again - maybe I missed it because I didn't have much time).

Thanks for the pointer.

Cheers,

For me (with 0.9 beta) the search works across folders - all looks fine.
