Face Detection in DK 8.5 - advice for partial images

[Michael Miller]

Hi Steve,
In the case where the face rectangle only covers part of the face, try this:
1. Open the preview of the image
2. Right-click on the image and check “Show Face Tags” in the context menu
3. Adjust the face rectangle by clicking on the sizing pips and drag the rectangle to cover all the face, but no more.

Cheers,
Mike
