TdeV 85 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) Sorry if this is answered somewhere, but I did look. What is the correct search criteria to include a note stack in a query, e.g. stack: Food includes notebook:Food & notebook:Food.Shared This doesn't work: -notebook:Food.* -tag:Drupal.* tag:Tips Edited to add more things I've learned: This is legal: stack:Food tag:tips But now I want to select everything else, but this doesn't seem to be legal: -stack:Food -tag:Drupal.* tag:Tips TIA Edited September 9, 2018 by TdeV learned more Link to comment

TdeV 85 Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 Yes, @DTLow, I'm wanting to exclude any note in the stack:Food, but I want all other notes. Your link didn't provide many details, but there was a link to this Search Grammar article which also doesn't seem to provide enough details. Link to comment

Negation doesn't work with stacks or notebooks; I don't know why they are specifically excluded You could search for stack:Food Then add tag:temp to the notes Then add -tag:temp to your search 1 Link to comment

Now I want to select everything BUT stack:Food Can't do this easily with current search capabilities. Two impractical solutions ?: If you had two stacks then you could just search the other stack (I have synced and local stacks so would work for me) Add a tag to all notes in the Food stack and minus out that tag In the meantime, sometimes with text, often with tags, the actual search in play will eliminate the extraneous notes. Whenever it doesn't I add more text or tags to the search. FWIW. 1 Link to comment
