Why a difference between label created after a face detection and the use of this label on other picture ?

[Daniel]

Hello,

I'm a new user of Digikam and I think it's very interesting.

I currently test software and specially the section on face detection, but I don't understand correctly the label functionnality.

When a label is created after a face detection on a first picture, why we can't use this label on other picture to assign the same person directly to the second picture ?

In fact why have we got a difference between label created after a face detection and the use of this label on other picture ?

Because this difference of use forbid the regroupment of persons, if pictures are not all labelised by face detection...

Great comfort of use if we can affect a person label directly on picture (as on other software). Thank you.

Kind Regards

Daniel
