Tags

Another way you can show non-hierarchical relationships between nodes is by using tags. They help you categorize your ideas and add more context to your thoughts.

Create & edit tags

To create tags:

• On your Mac, open the right sidebar in the top right-hand corner and select the tags tab (tag icon); now click the + in the upper left corner.
• On iOS, open the panel in the top right-hand corner and select the tags tab (tag icon); now tap the + in the lower-left corner.

Now you can start typing the tag's name you'd like to create.

To change the color of the tag, tap/click the color right next to the tag's name. You can also edit the color of existing tags the same way.

To edit the name of an existing tag:

• On iOS, swipe right on the tag and tap Edit.
• On your Mac, right-click the tag and select Rename.

To delete a tag:

• On iOS, swipe left and tap Delete.
• On your Mac, right-click on a tag and select Delete.

Apply & remove tags

Now that you have created tags, you can add them to existing nodes. Go ahead and:

1. Select a node by clicking on it.
2. Then tap/double-click a tag in the Tags tab of the panel (iOS)/Tags sidebar (Mac).

You can remove a tag from a node the same way. Another way to remove a tag from a node is to select the node, then tap/click the colored circle that indicates the tag. A pop-up will appear; on your Mac, you can hover over the tag's name and remove it by clicking the (–) icon; on iOS, you can delete the tag by swiping left over it.
