redmondm0 7 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Is there a way to filter tags by notebook? For me that would be very helpful. Michael Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,664 Posted April 8, 2017 Level 5* Share Posted April 8, 2017 Hi. Sorry - didn't understand the question. Are you wanting only to see the tags that have been used in one notebook when you view that notebook? can you explain more about what you want please? It's not possible to filter tags by notebook as such - unless you prefix all the tags in one notebook (say "work") with "w_" - then typing just that in the tag field will give you the full list.

Michael If Show all tags in the Search Info Tag Picker is unchecked in Tools - Options - Navigation, when you select a notebook and then select the tag picker (either press the icon or hit Shift-Alt-T), the resulting list of tags will be the tags used in that notebook. Don't know if that helps relative to "filtering" anything. Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,589 Posted April 8, 2017 Level 5* Share Posted April 8, 2017 I believe that the request is that when you pick a tag in the tag list, that it be added to the search control (where you type in other filters)... Edited for brain confusion. Link to comment

Your explanation was very helpful and solves my problem, though I wish it could be done in fewer keystrokes, that is, without having to burrow into the Tools menu. Michael Link to comment

When I select a notebook, I would like to have the option of seeing only the tags used in that notebook rather than the entire list of tags. cshihilling in his reply to my original one gave a solution that seems to work.

You only have to visit settings once. It should work from that point forward. Link to comment

Unfortunately I cannot find the Tools - Options - Navigation menu that you mention. I tried in Evernote 7.1 for macos and in the online version. I cannot find the tools menu in either version. The macOS app does have a "Preferences" menu but I cannot find the option you mention in the Preferences dialog. Does your solution refer to the Windows version or an older version of Evernote?

You are welcome. Yes it does. Not sure if the option exists on the Mac. Perhaps a Mac user can respond. Link to comment
