Bug ID: 496514
Summary: Regular Expression search facility
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version: 8.5.0
Platform: Other
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Searches-Advanced
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: idm....@cronkshaw.com
Target Milestone: ---
Having got into the 100ks figure of inherited slides (now digitized) I need a
sophisticated method to manage them.
I need a better search system.
I have a structured set of tags, and when I come to process another set of
images, which I have input, I quickly flag them. I then convert the flags to
the head of the tag structure. That works well.
First thing which would help is I would like to find all the images which are
tagged to a particular point in the hierarchy but do not have any children tags
allocated.
So given a tag structure of this sort
Tags
Buildings
Canals
Aire and Calder
Ashby
Ashton
Manchester Flight
Lock1 Below
Lock1
Lock2 Below
Islington Branch
Lock2
BCN
Farming
Lowland
Upland
Landscape
Railways
Presevation
East Lancs
Post Grouping
GWR
LMS
LNER
Southern
Pre Grouping
L&Y
Bury Shed
Bolton Shed
LNWR
So for example, I would like to find all the images which have the tag
Canals/Ashton but have no child tag.
another example all those images which have the tag Railways/Pre Grouping/L&Y
but again have no child tag.
This could easily be an extension of the current advanced search facility as it
could be a tick box saying no marked child of tag .............
This would enable me to find quickly all those images where further detail may
be easily identified and tagged accordingly.
It would also be beneficial to be able to create a regular expression type
search for things, however this I suspect would require a lot more work to
provide the ability to make things selectable as keys.
