Thanks Mike P That worked a treat. Could have sworn I tried that relatively simple formula but now embarrassed as must have overlooked it. Most grateful to you (and efx00) JP

Thank you for your post. The odd note out, in the 'ten' of the given example, does have the parent tag on it so will not show with -tag*. Meanwhile the EN article does not show how to use -tag:xa, -tag:xb and -tag:ac to show which note with tag:x is missing one of these. Hmmm...

I'd be grateful for instruction on how to use search (presumably Boolean search) to solve a problem like the following example: I have parent tag 'x' with a note count of 10. All 10 are in the same notebook. This tag 'x' has 3 child tags each with a note count as follows: child tag: 'xa' (3) child tag: 'xb' (3) child tag: 'xc' (3) To all nine notes have the parent tag 'x' applied to them as well. So one tag with 'x' does not have this and 'xa', or this and 'xb', or this and 'cx'. Now I need to determine which of the ten notes that were tagged with 'x' it is that does not have one or other of those three child tags applied to it. For that expample involving few notes I can of course identify the odd note out by checking each one individually, but I've failed with every attempted formula for getting Evernote to do the work. Surely there's a way...?

The title refers to the window that appears when you select to edit tags on a particular note (as distinct from when you click the Tags header in the sidebar). This window is an annoying size - big enough to obscure in-note text that in my case always informs the selection of multiple tags, but too small for the list of tags to be visible. Would it not be possible to let the user adjust the size of the window by grabbing one of its corners as with Msft Outlook and other widows?
