Hi,

 

1/ Version 7.2.0 is indeed much faster.

2/ Some maintenance tasks take a lot of time, sometimes it is counted in seconds, sometimes in days, but the progress bar only shows a percentage of completion, ... of what? seconds or days?


Number of files to process of course. There is no estimation of time to process whole faces, this depends of too many parameters, as image contents, image size, image extraction, etc...

3/ It would be very nice to have two buttons:

- one would allow you to close where you are; leave it at that; cancel the rest.

- the other one would allow to stop or pause the work temporarily, (to free the resources of the machine in order to do something else,) and then to resume.

4/ In the maintenance window, concerning the choices of albums/labels, it would be nice to be able to select, in a larger window, by recursively checking or unchecking by two or one click in the concerned box.

Here you go, please make good use of these wishes.

 


For all wishes, please :

Go to digiKam bugzilla / faces workflow | engine | detection | recognition, check existing files, look if the topic already exists and add new comments. If no entry exists, well create a new one.

Remember that time to life of thread in mailing is short and difficult to archive and follow. It's the role of bugzilla. In contrast,  for all technicals Q, a mailing list is more appropriate.

Best Regards
