Tags

In Docwize, you can tag a document. A tag works like a coloured sticky note: it marks documents that belong to the same topic, stage or outcome, so they can be found together, for example every drawing that has been checked. One document can have several tags. You tag a document while you view it, in the Tags tab of the review panel.

Administrators: For information on creating and managing the tag taxonomy, see Tags in System Configuration.

What you can do in Tags​

  • See the tags on a document
  • Apply a tag, including a tag from a tag group
  • Read a tag's description
  • Search for a tag
  • Pin the tags you use most
  • Remove a tag from a document
  • Turn tag recommendations on or off

To tag many documents at once, use Assign Tags in the document grid. See Assigning Docs.

In All Tags:

  • The bar on the left of each tag shows its colour. A tag group is blue, and a tag with no colour is orange.
  • A tag with child tags has an arrow. Click the tag to show or hide its children.
  • A tag that is already on the document has its name in green.
  • Each tag has a pin icon and an info icon on the right. A tag that contains other tags can also show one of these icons:
IconDescription
Mutually Exclusive (two linked rings)Only one of its child tags can be on a document. Applying another child replaces the one already applied.
Tag Group (two people)The tag is a group for choosing from. It cannot be applied itself. Click the icon to choose one of its tags.

Applied tags​

Each tag on the document has a card with its colour on the left, an x to remove the tag, and an info icon.

  • Click the info icon to show the tag's description, or No description if it has none. Click it again to hide it. The info icon in the All Tags tree does the same.
  • Click a card to find its tag in the tree: the tree opens to the tag and highlights it for a few seconds.

Pinned Tags​

Pin the tags you use most, so you don't have to look for them in the tree. Pinned tags are listed under Pinned Tags, above All Tags. They are remembered in your browser, so on another computer or browser you pin them again.

Tag recommendations​

Docwize can suggest tags for the document you are viewing, based on similar documents, your recent tagging and how tags are used in the workspace. Click the sparkle icon in the Tags header to turn recommendations on or off. The choice is saved for you (User settings updated) and applies to every document you open.

When recommendations are on, the suggestions for the document appear above the Tags header, or No recommended tags for this document when there are none.
