<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">OK, now that I’ve painstakingly cleaned up my face tags (removed duplicates, “tree” faces, and “sidewalk” faces) and installed 8.7.0 pre-release on Windows 11, I tried another
scan with detection and recognition set at 10 and Recognize Faces Only. It does a fine job of recognizing faces, and it wants me to confirm the faces it finds. However, my understanding was that if a face tag already exists for a face, it will skip that face.
Instead, it simply puts another rectangle inside the existing one with a (generally correct) suggestion. If I do nothing and I am mousing over faces in a picture, the suggestion will pop up inside the existing rectangle even though the face is already identified.
If I ignore the suggestion, then I’m assuming it will put an Ignored box inside the existing rectangle, which doesn’t seem quite right either.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
