Can I tag within a field?

[edferrigan]

In my current Tana set up I have a defined field within a tag. They call them supertags. I think your Objects feature is similar. Each supertag can then contain multiple fields. I can then tag again inside the field of the supertags. Am I able to do this with anytype? Screen Recording 2023-03-02...

Hi @edferrigan, inline tags are currently not supported, not in Relations but also not in text. You have several options to work around this but I believe the team is reworking the Tags feature, so you might want to wait for that to be released (no ETA) before settling in to a specific workflow.

1. You could use the “Tag” Relation to assign Tags to a Relation of an Object:

2. You could use inline @ mentions in the content of an Object (not in Relations) to use other Objects as tags:

You can type the hashtag (#) as part of the name of the Object:

A way to add/organize content in a way that is less rigid, more organic and frictionless (like RemNote)

I agree that we need a way to be more flexible with blocks, which includes being to tag a block and that we should be able to live search a tag. The way https://tana.inc is able to create versatility with blocks - which they call nodes and tagging, is phenomenal. It allows for setting up live searches, which in Anytype is the equivalent of sets. but it can then be done at a much more granular level. In a way, it is not true that everything in Anytype is an object. A tag does not behave as an obj…

Ability to insert Relations Inline with text

Would be very cool if relations could be displayed inline. For example, the author of a book is a relation. Now I want to make a text as following: “as {author} wrote, …” For displaying would be nice too if it was possible to add an author icon which is displayed left to the name. But even without icon would be nice. Important is the autofill (when used as template) and that it is clickable

This VERY Good news. I’ve been using Tana and LogSeq and it helps the workflow to just be able to tag any object and sort it later in this case sets.
