[suggestion] Conditional (view) Statements

[Conorsmine]

REcently I reset my windows system and started fresh. This always brings new possiblities to try other/new things and there's nothing newer than an alpha project which just released. Anyways, I'm currently in the process of using TagStudio as my main form of storing and searching for files, but I've come over an "inconvenience". A very minor one at that, however I still got this idea from it:

"Conditional Statements" would be a system where you can specify what should happen to an entry if it has a certain tag. The main point, imo, would be to remove certain entries from being viewed, except if you explicitly search for them. The reasoning for this is, I have a few files that I don't want people to see when I'd stream or similar. I tagged them with "Personal" and it would be really cool if it were possible to hide such entries.

This might sound very insignificant... and probably is, but I'm sure one could extend that system to also have other abilities which I could not have imagined.

This is actually exactly what I have planned for the "Archived" tag, however I keep forgetting to make that tag actually function like that (it even slipped my mind in the feature lists...)

It seems like you'd like that sort of functionality, but with the ability to apply the "hiding" feature of the Archived tag to any tag you'd like. I think that should be pretty straightforward to implement once the base hiding functionality is in, then the program can offer a UI of what tags you currently have set to hide in searches so you don't end up loosing track of any :)
