Anyway to delete a tag?

Open lavedon opened this issue 5 years ago • 6 comments

Hello, I'm loving Mind Forger.

Is there anyway to delete a tag? I can't seem to figure out how or find any relevant instructions in the documentation.

Thank you!

Hello @lavedon!

Tags cannot be deleted - tags which you see listed (for instance when you adding tag to Note) are gathered from tags used in all your Notebooks and Notes. Tag disappears from that list if it is not used by any Notebook on Note (on MindForger restart). In order to find Notebooks or Notes which use particular tag you can use menu Find > Note or Notebook by tag.

Do you want me to implement an action which would delete particular tag from all Notebooks and Notes? (as a consequence tag would disappear also from all the lists)

From my perspective that would be a useful action to add

Thank you! I don't really need this feature anymore, but perhaps other users might benefit from it. Thanks again for the response.

I am looking for a way to remove tags that I don't use. I believe they are built in tags. There are not any notebooks that contain the following tags, yet they are still present in the Tags screen and the Graph.

  • obsolete
  • later
  • problem
  • personal
  • important
  • cool
  • done
  • what
  • how
  • why
  • where
  • who

Agreed - I would also like to remove unused tags with some type of delete function. I'm not sure why those built-in tags are there and clutter up the knowledge graph.

OK, makes sense - thank you for the enhancement suggestion!

Changing this GH issue from question to enhancement and adding it to the next release.
