It would be really useful to be able to show only the newly tagged people for me to confirm or deny.
Along with it, add a button next to the person’s name in the main pane to confirm all, once the wrongly tagged ones are manually removed.

This way, I won’t have to multi-select those new faces from within the person’s view and then do Shift-Enter.

    leonardoa Thank you for suggestion. However, I have my doubts about this. This button can promote accepting without actually checking suggestions, which is known to lead to bad recognition results. That is why it still was not added.

    However, you still can do sam thing if you want using keyboard shortcuts instead: Control+A and then Shift+Enter. The result will be just the same.

    In order to be able to press Ctrl+A, first I have to click into the pane of the person I want to verify. If I then press Ctrl+A it will select ALL the photos of the person including those that have been identified.
    So what I have to do is to Shift-click the first new image and the last new image that I want to approve, then press Shift-Enter.
    So the sequence of actions I have to perform each time I want to approve faces are:

    1. Click on the person’s name
    2. Hold down Shift (with my left hand) and click the first new image.
    3. While still holding down Shift, click on the last new images.
    4. While still holding down Shift, let go of the mouse (from my right hand) and press Enter.

    Repeat process for the remaining 300 people!!

    Hence, my initial request to show only the newly tagged faces. This will at least remove steps 2 and 3.

      leonardoa while sequence you listed is 100% correct, it does not mean the one I provided is not correct. Yes, you are right, first you need to initiate selection mode, and I forgot about that in my post, sorry for that. However, mouse click is not the only method to do that. You can press cursor keys like Down or Right to do the same. So, revised version is:

      • Press Down to switch to selection mode. First image in the group will be selected
      • Press Control+A. Everything in the group will be selected
      • Press Shift+Enter. All suggestions will be approved, and it will have no effect on already approved faces.

      Yes, this is not just one button click, but is still much easier that what you are doing right now, it will require minimum mouse movements, and no group selection.

      As to your initial suggestion, I do not discard it. This is an open topic still. Quite often I get request like yours, but I also see lot of suffering from people who do mistakes and approve wrong faces. I do not have final decision on that topic yet.
