Selecting notes by tags

[rolands6 5]

Can I select in the webversion notes, specifying they do contain tags A and B, but NOT C? And other kind of combinations?

Thanks.

tag:A tag:B -tag:C

Thank you!

Slightly off topic: do, in nested tags, notes with child tags not automatically get the parent tag as well? I think they do not.

I hope my question is clear.

Confirmed, notes only get the tag assignment not parent tags

OK, but then I do not see the advantages of nested tags. I considered them as folder and subfolders, so search for tag 'Parent' showing all notes 'Parent' and 'Child', and search for tag 'Child' only notes 'Child'.

I think this feature was implemented in Evernote/Windows

>>I do not see the advantages of nested tags

The hierarchy allows me to organize my tags

Also, in the post below, I illustrated browsing my notes using the taglist in the sidebar

Confirmed, EN windows desktop has an option to automatically select child tags.  Nice, but not as effective as it could be without a Boolean search option in EN.
