[Digikam-users] feature-request: optional view of children of tag

[Harald Finster]

Hello,

first of all, I would like to congratulate you for
the phantastic work on digikam!

The following idea should be easy to implement
and would be extremely useful.

Would it be possible to show all images, which
are tagged by a certain tag and in addition all
images tagged with the tag's child-tags?

Consider the following tag-tree as an example

animal

    mammal

      bear
      dog
      cat

    bird

      blackbird
      raven

    insect

Currently, clicking on 'mammal' will show only
images tagged as 'mammal' but not images tagged
as 'bear', 'dog', 'cat'.

It would be more than useful (especially for categorizing purposes),
if this behaviour could be controlled, e.g. by a property of the tag.


Just a suggestion.

Greetings Harald
