            Bug ID: 431753
           Summary: Show overlay with metadata in Preview mode
           Product: digikam
           Version: 7.1.0
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Preview-Image
          Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: kni...@volny.cz
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

Allow the user to define what metadata should be displayed (comments, file
name, tags, etc.) as an image overlay in `Preview` mode.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Open image in Preview mode

OBSERVED RESULT

No metadata are displayed.

EXPECTED RESULT

Comments of all lang variants, assigned tags, ratings, color lables, file size
etc. should be displayable.

(Similar display options as of // Settings // Configure digiKam // Views //
Icons should be available for Preview.)

RATIONALE

While adding/reviewing image metadata (tags, comments, face tags) in Preview
mode it is rather slow to identify what user metadata are already filled in.

I.e. I have to switch the side panels to Tags (check "Tags already assigned"),
to Description (open the language code to see which lang variants are already
filled in), etc.

It is possible to increase the icon (thumbnail) size in "Thumbnails" mode to
somewhat emulate a Preview mode, however:

- the size is limited

- the image quality is not the same as preview

- it is not possible to add face tags.
