(Feature idea) Annotation directory

[TheCodingHornet]

You've added playback of image folders and sub-folders (and that's great).
But I think that in the annotations folder, you should be able to follow this folder hierarchy.
If I have an image folder :

• img/subdir1/{imgfile},
• img/subdir2/{imgfile},
• img/subdir3/{imgfile}

You'd probably need to have annotations :

• annotations/subdir1/{xmlfile},
• annotations/subdir2/{xmlfile},
• annotations/subdir3/{xmlfile}

And keep the export at the root of the folder.

I haven't tested this (sorry I haven't had the time), but currently all annotations files are in the same folder (the selected folder). I wonder what happens if I have several image files with the same name in various image subfolders? I think this could cause problems (like using the same mask on several photos).

Off topic: your application is really cool, I've had the idea of making one in the same style with AI options (like automatic learning, directly in the application, using a default template like Yolo, ). If you ever need some dev manpower, don't hesitate to drop me a line, I'd love to help.

Thanks for writing the issue.

Improved so that when open an images folder which includes sub-folders recursively, the same sub-folders are structured in the annotations folder. The new version 2025.01.11 was released.

Thanks for your idea that RectLabel should implement a training feature such as YOLO11 nano and small models. I agree that If RectLabel can cover annotations and training offline, it would be very useful for users. We really appreciate your support.
