Create Tags

In our system, Tags help to improve clarity in the backend. You can assign tags to different elements such as switchboards, layers and views. This makes filtering and specific navigation of related backend elements much easier and more efficient.

When you open the Tag area, the tags you have created yourself are displayed first. The system Tags then appear. These are automatically assigned to the layers and switchboards for automated processes. Processes such as direct depot import, saving to a layer from the depot or depot export.

To create a new tag, you must be logged into the instance as an administrator.
In the panel, layer or view view view, click on the plus symbol in the tag area in the top left-hand corner.

As soon as you click on the plus symbol, the Tag editor opens. Here you can define the name, color and icon for the new Tag. After entering the desired settings, simply click on “Create” to create the tag.

In the table or tile view, the settings for layers, views and switchboards can be opened via the three-dot menu. Alternatively, this is possible in the map view of the layers and views by clicking on the gear icon.

In the settings under the “Tags” function, one or more Tags can be easily assigned to the backend element. Here is an example of the layer settings.

This then appears in the Tags area. If several tags have been assigned and your tag is not immediately visible, please refresh your currently open tab. All tags assigned to the backend element are displayed below.

In the table view, you can select the “Tag item” option by using the selection box in the top corner. After the selection, a context menu appears in which you can simply click on the corresponding option.

Everything else is carried out simultaneously as described in these steps.

You can use the “Pin” function to enable a clear overview of connected backend elements. Select one or more tags.

This selects and displays all tagged switchboards, layers and views accordingly.
