Cannot remove Tag icon once it is set

[mjukr]

Binary package hint: f-spot

Although a Tag can have no Icon associated with it when first created, once you've attached a photo as an Icon for that Tag, it's not possible to remove it. So, if I assign an Icon to a Tag, then later decide I don't want to have one (because it takes up visual space in the Tag listing), I'm out of luck. If it is possible, it's less than obvious...

This is v0.3.5 in Feisty.

Thanks for the bug report. What you've described is true, but f-spot automatically assigns an icon to a tag once it's been used. For example, open f-spot and create a new tag called "test". Then assign that tag to a few photos. You'll see that the tag's icon will be represented by the first photo you associate it with. As of right now, there does not appear to be any way to opt out of using icons, so I don't think this can be called a bug. It does however appear that this feature has already been requested: "Remove Tag Icon." For more information on this, see bugzilla bug #430249.

Thanks again.

Apologies, the link above should be to: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=430249.

Ah, yes, I see. It would be considered a "feature request" then. Thanks
