I just started playing with the People functions in IM 2020.5.4. Cool stuff!

1) In the viewer, how do I turn off the people face tags so they don't cover up the image. I often do image quality checks in the viewer and need to see the pixels not covered by the face tags. I didn't find a keyboard keystroke sequence.

2) In the viewer, how do I resize the face tags relative to the pixels counts of the images? Small pixel images get covered badly with face tags (example attached). Can sizing be done on a per image basis?

Oh, yes, I am in this battle, too. How can I hide face tags with one keyboard shortcut?
I feel the second problem, too. But I admit, that this is more difficult to handle.

Key sequence A,E will show/hide annotations, including the face annotations. Also available (and mentioned) in the context menu, sub menu "Display options".

User ex machina! :) Thanks, yes, it is really there. IMatch has so many-many options and possibilty, that I can hardly learn. Fortunately we have this forum. :)

Awesome! Thanks! I looked in the Cheat Sheet under Viewer and didn't find it. It's under Annotations.

Thorsten,
I think, you do know IMatch really good, you have often some advice, what I am baffled.
Great. :)
Best wishes from Switzerland! :-)

QuoteAwesome! Thanks! I looked in the Cheat Sheet under Viewer and didn't find it. It's under Annotations.

This made me check the cheat sheet. I think it is correct.
The command to toggle annotations is listed under Viewer Panels and Overlays and Annotation Objects.

It is of course very hard to anticipate where users will look for a certain piece of information. And the cheat sheet is supposed to be concise.
But I don't see a 'better' place to show the command than these two blocks.

When I search Annotations for the word hide, it also leads immediately to the information about layers and how to hide them.

If you want an improvement, please use the feedback link available at the bottom of every help page to send me suggestions.

1) So we have identified the annotation command to turn off the face tags. That is good/completed. Thanks.
2) We don't have an answer on tag sizes.

The sizes of the labels depend on the system control font site and they are scaled.
Your images seem to be very small and there are many faces close together. And this is why the labels look so big. There is no further option to control this.

Tip: When you use <Tab> to tab through the labels, the currently focused face is brought into the foreground, which makes the label always readable.
