<p>Having previously used Picasa for my photo storage I am migrating
to digiKam. Using Windows 11 digikam 8.6.0</p>
<p>Whilst Picasa identified faces, many of my "faces" are manually
annotated with the selection boxes often larger than the immediate
facial area, the data being stored in the metadata.</p>
<p>digiKam seemed to import this information fairly successfully but
nonetheless I set it to Tools->Maintenance->Detect and
Recognize Faces.</p>
<p>It took most of the day (c. 69k items) but at the end an
interesting observation was that in perhaps a couple of dozen
instances an area within the originally manually applied selection
was incorrectly identified. The interesting thing being this
incorrect identification was usually either a sibling or child of
previously identified person. Genetic similarity confirmed
perhaps?</p>
<p>My only difficulty was trying to delete this inner area, as soon
as I moved mouse towards the "Confirm/Remove/Ignore" box the outer
area was selected. In the end I resorted to typing "Ignored"
without moving the mouse. </p>
<p>Have I perhaps missed the keyboard shortcut for this process.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
