> Hi all,
> I'm trying to figure out how much of the face information entered into
> digikam persists in the file metadata.  When I open a file with a saved face
> in another program to just look at the metadata, I see that there are tags
> indicating the faces in the image.  What I don't see are the locations of
> those faces.  But yet if I copy the file and put it back into digikam,
> digikam knows where the faces are.  Is that information actually stored in
> the file, or is digikam running its face detection code on the image again
> and using the metadata to reproduce the faces from the original image?
> I tried looking online to find an answer to this, and all I found was a
> message to digikam-devel in March, and the answer was that someone was
> working on saving things the right way, but I didn't find what the
> resolution was.
> Thanks,
> Matt
