Tags misinterpret spaces #18

Closed KarelVO closed 4 years ago

KarelVO commented 4 years ago

I sort my notebooks with a "[number] " in front, e.g.

etc.

The web clipper misinterprets these spaces as new tags. For example, in the picture attached it will regard the tag

[2] Persoonlijk.Muziek

as two separate tags, namely

[2] and Persoonlijk.Muziek

Much better! Doing a great job, John!

Another suggestion: show up the tags that correspond to a string that you type instead of having to type the tag in its entirety, starting from the first character.

EXAMPLE

Now: when I type 'muz' I don't get suggested tags. When I start typing '[2' I get the suggestion for '[2] Persoonlijk.muziek' and all other tags that start with those characters. Ideal: when I type 'muz', all tags that have the string 'muz' in it are shown (such as '[2] Persoonlijk.muziek' in this case, but perhaps also others)

What do you think? I believe it makes sense and makes you work faster, thus increasing productivity.

johnjones4 commented 4 years ago

So you'd like the tag search to suggest based on a general string search and not a "starts with" search as it does now? My concern with that is I don't think that's how SN's tag search function behaves.

KarelVO commented 4 years ago

Ideally yes, if that's possible. I believe that that is the most user-friendly way of adding tags.

I noticed that searching for tags within SN itself behaves as follows: it is a ''starts with'' search but that 'start' applies to subtags as well. For example, typing ''a'' will bring up the ''#[2] Persoonlijk.Artikels'' tag, whereas the clipper will only bring that up when typing ''[''.

I see now - I haven't been using subtags but I see how SN handles them now and why it creates this behavior. Stay tuned for a fix this week.

johnjones4 commented 4 years ago

Sorry for the delay - I think we have this now. Stay tuned for the next build
