<div dir="ltr">Hi Gilles.<div>Not sure how I should reply to your mail. I understand the latest part, I'm aware of the nature of digiKam and of the work you guys do. But it doesn't seem I've put any kind of pressure of complained in any way about missing answers.

<br>
I would like to give a response, but I would like to know what the<br>
question is exactly ? Do you want technical details of the source<br>
relevant of filter feature ?<br>
<br>
In all cases, the Qt5 to Qt6 does not change the fundamental approach<br>
of the icon view filtering mechanism between the GUI and the Database.<br>
<br>
Remember that the base digiKam code is large, with a lot of features<br>
implemented. You need to be precise with the exact feature to<br>
describe. Typically, use screenshots of views from GUI where you want<br>
details.<br>
<br>
Another remark is the place where to ask Q. Generally, the complex<br>
response to bugs or dysfonctions is not the mailing list. Large<br>
response needs time to write and the contents of the thread are<br>
generally lost after 2 weeks. It's better to open a thread in gitlab<br>
where developers can follow the thread and review code for future pull<br>
requests. Also all patches are tested with the continuous integration<br>
to limit broken code<br>
inclusion.<br>
<br>
Look here :<br>

<br>
Voilà, remember that developers has also a real life and time to<br>
respond and code is limited (:-)))<br>
<br>
Voilà, best regards<br>
<br>

Unfortunately I got busy with other things and wasn't able to work on the investigation for a while and there have been significant changes to digikam since then including switching to a newer version of QT, so I would need to start my investigation from scratch.<br>

However if I flag another picture it stays visible, while I expect that it goes away because of the active filter. Also, I cannot find any way to force the filter to re-run.
