Agreed 100%. My mum (my useability yardstick) doesnt get the 'Events' at all - and I have to say, I didnt get them until I relalised you could change the date to anything else. I dont see the point in them, dont want them, and would like an option to turn them off since they prevent me seeing my tags until I roll them up. My mum is begging me for a timeline for shotwell since she used this on F-Spot before. I'd quite like a timeline, but hierarchical tags is all I needed. With hierarchical tags, 'Events' becomes essentially useless. Perhaps the events logic could be recycled to implement a "Create tags automatically for events" option on import? -Ian _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
