[digiKam-users] Face Detection: How to remove unknown results and rescan with high %?

[KRODER Gerhard]

hi,

in faces unknown view, select all (ctrl-a), and then either remove face 
tag by regula tag management, or hitting "minus" at one of the selected 
ones. AFAIK, this removes face estimation "unknown", and will be taken 
into account on any next recognition scan. (As this is a DB 
"transaction", you will see flickering for each processed file most likely.

You may test on some single ones.

Cheers, Gerhard.
