Tag Management

Introduction to Tags

In a project, you should use tags to categorize. A document can have multiple tags, making it convenient to find a document using tags.

ivySCI does not provide sub-projects (folders), so searching for files in folders can be cumbersome and is only suitable for a small number of documents.

After importing documents, we can add tags to them, allowing for more detailed management within the project. There are many ways to categorize tags, for example, we can add tags like "unread/reading/finished reading" or use subcategories of a topic as tags.

Once tags are set, we can find documents through the automatic categorization of tags.

Adding Parent Tags

Each tag can have a parent tag, forming a tag tree. However, when specifying a parent tag, the tag must already exist. If it doesn't exist, we need to add the tag to the document first.

Let's take an example: Suppose we want to add a "Child Label" and a "Root Label," but the "Root Label" doesn't exist when adding the Child Label. In this case, we won't be able to add it. As shown in the following image:

We must first create the "Root Label," as shown in the following image:

Then we can specify that the parent tag of "Child Label" is "Root Label."

The above method is not very reasonable, and we are making adjustments accordingly. After the adjustments, it will be more convenient.

Batch Adding Tags

In document management, we can select multiple documents and then add tags in batches. As shown in the following image:
