5.3.4 - Parent categories now among Current categories in Categories Panel

[pajaro]

For @Keywords category I do not assign @Keywords for parent categories, even though they are in the category tree. It can be seen in Fig. 1 - for e.g. USA, @Keywords Places and Staty (=Countries) are not assigned to the image. Now, after installation 5.3.4. these parent categories are in the list of Current categories (Fig. 2: e.g. @Keywords|Places and @Keywords|Places|Staty) even though these should not be assigned to the image. This happened also for other parent categories. I did not touch any IMatch settings, just installed the new version. What could be done about it? Thanks, Pavel.

Data-driven categories are supposed to contain their files. This is a requirement for filters to work, and for Other to work correctly. I think this is a side effect of the laborious fix I had to make for the "Other" problem to be solved.

Do you see this as a problem? I see that this may be irritating for the case of @Keywords.
Please add a bug report and I will think about this for one of the upcoming releases.

Hi Mario, thanks for your response. To be honest, this not great for my workflow. I always used the Current tab to see which categories are assigned to the images. Of course, I can also do it with 5.3.4, but now there are extra categories that were not supposed to be assigned, and the list is rather confusing - before, I immediately saw what I was interested in, now I would have to go through the list and check if the given category is "real" (meaning the category I wanted to assign) or just a parent category that is irrelevant for me. I don't know if there is any (easy) way how to display @Keywords in the Current tab as in the previous IMatch versions, but I would certainly be very happy if this could be done... For now, I removed 5.3.4 and re-installed 5.3.2.

Pavel.

Then just open a bug report.

OK, thanks, I'll do that.

With the same embarrassment, I would like to Pajaro and re-installed the previous version.
But the installer asks me to remove the current version first. Are there any precautions other than "P & G" to find everything as yesterday before the 5.3.4 update.
Then uninstall directly from Windows? My current base it will disappear, and in this case "P & G" suffice it to ?

Never downgrade an IMatch installation (install an older version of IMatch) without also restoring the older database. New versions of IMatch may introduce changes to the database, and I don't consider, test or support downgrades back to older versions of IMatch.

@ Mario : I assume that going for with "P & G" an old version of two or three days before the latest version, this is enough?

If I understand correctly, you should you the version of the database that was not opened in the new build of IMatch (5.3.4. in this case). So, I uninstalled 5.3.4., installed the previous version (5.3.2.) and before starting IMatch replaced the database that was opened in 5.3.4. with the backup from the previous day.

Regards,

Pavel.

With "Pack & Go"... This is enough?

Oops, sorry, I did not see the new version. I installed it and it solves the problem. Mario thank you for your promptness and your skills.
