            Bug ID: 493779
           Summary: Visible feedback when adding or removing tags,
                    ratings, etc. via keyboard
    Classification: Applications
           Product: digikam
           Version: 8.5.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR

Created attachment 174166
  --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=174166&action=edit
Screenshot mockup of extended icon bar

SUMMARY: see $SUBJECT


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Preview an image
2. Press Ctrl-1 (for "1 star") or Alt-1 (for "red flag")
3. Try to find out whether you have just *added* or *removed* this tag, without
looking at the sidebar

OBSERVED RESULT
You can't find out. There is no visible feedback.

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be some kind of visible feedback, e.g. a transient hover text in
one image corner saying "1 star added" or "red flag removed", or (better)
something visible, like in the attachment mockup as an extension to the icon
bar that's already visible.
The star rating, the flags, color markers and possibly other tags could be
displayed there and would always be visible, regardless of the sidebars the
user may or may not have activated - and much more prominent when you want to
quickly tag or rate a large number of images using the keyboard. It may even be
possible to display the selected stars, flag and color marker *as* a clickable
icon with a dropdown choice, so that the user can directly change their choice
from within the (possibly full screen) preview.

Can something like this be integrated into Digikam?

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS: Appimage as of Sep 09, 2024, on KDE Neon 22.04.
