Hi all

I'm tagging away but routine find that moving my mouse from the tagging window back to the actual photo to remove incorrect tags becomes tiresome and time consuming.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to remove the currently highlighted tag (in tagging view) and move onto the next recognised face. Even the 'trash' icon - though it removes the tag - moves to the next photo but remove focus from the next tag! meaning you have to move the mouse left again...

Any help?

Karl,

you can use the delete key on the keyboard to remove selected boxes (yellow). This works in the single image tagger (where you see the photo), and the single image photo view. Let us know if you need further clarification.

Sorry... specifically, desktop app, running on Leopard 10.5.4.

Yep, delete works, but again, it loses focus on the next tag. This is in tagger mode when I have 1,000 untagged faces detected. The top bar scrolls through faces needing tagging as I tag them. So my mouse is over the right hand tag section of the app. If one comes up that isn't a face and I hit delete the next face requiring a tag loses focus. So I have to bring the mouse over, select the next face, then move back to tagging again.

In tagger mode, delete should remove the current box, and move focus onto the next untagged face.

Does that make sense. That would make things MUCH quicker when you have a bunch of tags.
