You can find models and files by searching on their assigned tags. You can even find such items by searching on ancestor tags — that is, tags assigned to the item’s tags themselves. For example, if you create a tag Interpolation Functions and add it under the tag Project A, you may assign the former tag to data files and then find those data files by searching on the latter tag.

You can track changes to the assigned tags of items over time, giving you an organizational history. Perhaps you introduce tags for different stages in your modeling workflow, say In Progress, To Review, Approved, and Needs More Work.

You can search items based on their tag assignments at a particular time by Searching in Snapshots and Commits. Perhaps you want to find all items that had a particular tag, say In Progress, a month ago, or merely see what the tag tree looked like. When Searching in Branches, you search the present tag assignments.

The settings for tags are version controlled. If you change the title of a tag and click Save () in the Settings window, a new version of the tag is created. Any tag assignments involving the saved tag will, however, be left unchanged.

Select the Add to selected models and files check box if you want the new tag to be automatically assigned to the current selection of model and files in The Model Manager Window or The Databases Window (depending on which window has focus). The check box is disabled if no models or files are selected.

In the Parent tags tab, select tags in The Tag Tree that will be assigned to the new tag — in other words, its parent tags. Leaving all nodes in the tree cleared will create the new tag under the root. You can filter the tree of available parent tags by writing a tag title in the text field above the tree.
