Multi-level tag sort


dvollc

Idea

I’d like the ability to have multi-level sort capability by tag for note lists.

The beauty of tags is the one-to-many relationship that can be established between a note and a tag.  I take advantage of this ability including nesting tags.  In my use case of an Evernote implementation for GTD, I have a set of Priority tags and Action tags.

My Priority tags are:

  • Priority
    • Priority:Critical
    • Priority:Important
    • Priority:Nice to have

My Action tags are:

  • Action
    • Action:Read
    • Action:Listen
    • Action:Watch
    • Action:Followup

Valuable lists can be produced with Priority as the first level sort and Action the second level.  Another valuable list can be produced with the opposite - Action as the first level sort followed by Priority as the second level.

This is only one use case.  Given that there will be numerous tags used with a note, presenting a list of all tags to define the multi-level sort makes my ask universal.

Evernote has limited sort options for notes
fwiw  I take my data to a spreadsheet where there's more options   
           I have this scripted with Applescript on my Mac

Due-date is also useful
