[digikam-2]

DK 7.1.0 appimage.

Could somebody explain to me the "Similarity > Restrict to" options

What is :

* only selected tab
* one of
* both
* albums but not tags
* tags but not albums

I've google and can't find any explanation

Thanks

It's about the album and tag selector underneath. Mario built this in while
the selector was a bit buggy and the selection status was not clear. I've
already considered removing it. What do you think - remove?

Yes, I would say remove. But this is because I don't understand it

Explained a little better:

* only selected tab => search in albums or tags, use the viewed tab
* one of => search in albums or tags, use checkbox selection
* both => search in albums and tags
* albums but not tags => search only albums
* tags but not albums => search only tags

Hi from the off,

This options mimics somethlng like the extended search for duplicates search.
I wanted it to be powerful. But somehow it was not documented...

The semantics are/should be more like:
* only selected tab => search duplicates in albums or tags, use the viewed tab and ignore the other tab

* one of => search duplicates being in the selected albums or having the selected tags, use checkbox selection

*both => search duplicates that are both in one of the selected albums and have at least one of the selected tags.

*albums but not tags => search only duplicates in the selected albums that do not have the selected tags.

* tags but not albums => vice versa.

At least this is how i Implemented it IIRC.

Cheers,
Mario

Yes, I would say remove. But this is because I don't understand it
