Tags are short labels, like gst, urgent or q3, that you can put on notes from any notebook. The Manage tags window lets you add, rename, recolour and delete tags in one place.
Open Manage tags
- Find the Tags section in the side menu.
- If you have no tags yet, select New tag. If you already have some, select the settings icon named Manage tags next to the heading.
Add a tag
- In the box labelled New tag, type a name, for example gst.
- Select Add. The button stays unavailable until you type a name.
You can also create a tag while writing a note: type the new name into the tag box on the note and it is made for you.
Rename or recolour a tag
- Find the tag in the list and select its edit button (the palette icon).
- Change the Name, pick a colour, or both.
- Select Save. Notes shows a message such as "Tag saved as" followed by the name. Select Cancel to leave without changes.
Be careful when renaming: if you rename a tag to the name of another tag, the two are merged, and the notes keep both labels.
Delete a tag
- Select the delete button (the bin icon) beside the tag.
- Read the question that appears. For a tag that is on notes it says it will remove the tag from those notes and that the notes are kept.
- Select Delete to confirm, or Cancel to keep the tag.
Deleting a tag never deletes your notes.
See the notes that carry a tag
In the Tags section of the side menu, each tag appears as a coloured chip with the number of notes on it. Select a chip to see those notes. If you have many tags, select Show all to see the full list, and Show fewer to fold it again. When you have finished managing tags, select Done.
