Face recognition thumbnails for a person are currently found when one opens the form for a person and then clicks on the smiley icon at the top. The matrix of thumbnails presented could be used in more creative and useful ways than for just managing faces. Suggestions:

1. Make the matrix of face thumbnails accessible directly from the People tab by choosing between showing the whole image or just the face thumbnail. In the latter case, the display needs to change to showing smaller thumbnails, as in the current way they are displayed. I guess for the face thumbnail view, one would exclude images that don't have a face.
2. When you click on a thumbnail, show the whole image in View, where the thumbnail can be adjusted if necessary. Displaying the whole image in quick view would also be useful.
3. The matrix of face thumbnails is useful for more than just management purposes - it would be great to be able to export it into design and print. A relative of mine was having a birthday recently and I took a screen grab of the matrix of face images I had of her from childhood to adulthood and sent it to her in a Whatsapp message - it worked really well! It would have worked even better if it had not been cluttered with management-related icons.

Thank-you
