[Digikam-users] Re: Child tags not included into parent tags?

[Photonoxx]

May be it's easier to select both "Brother" and "Sister" tagged pictures,  
and then just add Family tag to all of them.

I don't thing "autoselect/deselect parent" works with the right click  
tagging method, you have to use the right panel to do that.
