Tags for objects

Use tags to label objects by topic, priority, or status. You can search for tagged objects and arrange them in a grid by tag. Object tagging is available with the Advanced and Enterprise plans. You can add up to eight tags to a sticky note, deck of notes, image, document, audio or video file, or Collaboard task.

Create a tag

Object tagging is available with the Advanced and Enterprise plans. 
  1. Select the object you want to tag.
  2. Click Add tags in the contextual toolbar.
  3. Enter a name of up to 30 characters. To change the tag color, click the color swatch next to the name and choose a color.
  4. Click Create or press Enter.

The new tag is automatically added to the selected object and becomes available to reuse on the board.

 

Add or remove an existing tag

  1. Select an object and click Add tags in the contextual toolbar.
  2. Click a tag in the list to add it to the object. If the object already has the tag, clicking it removes it from that object.

A tag stays available on the board even after you remove it from every object.

Edit a tag

  1. Select an object that supports tags and click Add tags in the contextual toolbar.
  2. Click the pencil icon next to the tag you want to edit.
  3. Change the name or color, then click Save or press Enter.

The change applies to every object on the board that uses the tag.

Delete a tag from the board

  1. Select an object that supports tags and click Add tags in the contextual toolbar.
  2. Click the pencil icon next to the tag you want to delete.
  3. Click Delete tag.

This deletes the tag from the board’s tag list and removes it from every object that uses it. The board’s Undo command cannot reverse tag changes.

 

Find objects by tag

  1. Click the magnifying glass at the top of the board.
  2. Enter the tag name in the search field.
  3. Click a matching result to go to the object on the board.

 

Arrange objects by tag

  1. Select the objects you want to arrange.
  2. In the contextual toolbar, open Align content and click Arrange.
  3. In the Arrange objects window, set Objects per row.
  4. Under Arrange objects by, choose Arrange by object tags (alphabetically, based on first tag).
  5. Click Save.

Collaboard arranges the selected objects in a grid, using each object’s first tag as the primary sort order. For more ways to organise objects on your board, see Arrange and align objects.
