🔗Name

quicktag.lua - add shortcuts to speed up tagging

🔗Description

For faster attaching your favorite tags, the script adds shortcuts and the module “quicktag” in lighttable mode with a changeable number of buttons. A tag can be assigned to each button. If the tags do not exist in your database, they are added to the database the first time they are attached to an image.

The number of buttons/shortcuts can be changed in the lua preferences. Changes in the number require a restart of darktable.
