Description herber 2007-03-12 08:16:58 UTC 
I often select some photos and right click to bring up the attach tags menu.  The attach tags menu shows my high level tags and has flyout submenus as needed.  This is good.  But if you select create new tag, the menu that is generated to select the parent tag is flattened.  It can take forever to scroll to tags far down the list.  I would like to see the parent tag menu look just like the add tag menu.  Thanks.

From the main menu, tags, edit selected tag, a dialog box appears.  Within that dialog the parent tag button produces yet another list of tags.  This one does not show the tag image, so is much faster to scroll through all my tags.  This is the third different tag selection code.  It looks like these should be refactored into a single module.  Thanks.

Herber,

I totally get your point. From a technical point of view, it's not really possible to use the same code everywhere, one code generating a Menu and the other ones should generate a ComboBox (I say should, cause now it uses an OptionMenu which is deprecated). But you're right, all this need to be rationalized a bit...

F-Spot has moved to https://github.com/f-spot/f-spot/issues

If this Bugzilla ticket is still valid in a recent version of F-Spot, please feel free to post this topic as a ticket in the F-Spot project on GitHub.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping as we are planning to shut down GNOME Bugzilla in favor of GNOME Gitlab.
