Face tag plugin & auto exif rotation [solved]

[michel038]

Check this option : Settings > General > "Rotate images according to EXIF orientation tag"

For photos that are not in natural orientation :

- When the option is enabled, the Face tag plugin can detect faces, but displays wrong regions.
- If the option is disabled, rotated faces are not detected
(in this case, we can manually define regions and add names)

This first photo for a reference : Orientation landscape,
- detection and regions OK in all cases

This photo needs a 90° clockwise rotation. (Internet browsers automatically rotates)

Download the photo and browse with Xnviewmp ...
1) Disable rotation according to exif
- No face detection. It is not surprizing.
- user defined regions : all OK

2) Enable exif auto rotation
Face detection ok, but wrong place for regions
-user defined regions : wrong place for regions
