Shan,

I see, you are referring to the ‚find tagged pages‘ plugin. I thought you were referring to the auto-completion plugin.

> I would ideally like to see that in columns - perhaps a settings option? plus option on number of columns? I'd personally make it 4 columns and widen the area.

It’s a pity that I switched from a table oriented view for common tags (as it is still for selected tags) to a treeview. With a table oriented view I could have displayed the list of tags in
a flexible manner (say depending on the size of the common tag box horizontally and vertically).

I will look into the table oriented view again to see if I can realize a view in more ‘columns’.

> Plus move them into categories.
That would require enhancing the index with an additional category field I guess as well as providing a category manager
to assign tags to categories.

Do you use categories just for visual order or do you have other use cases in mind?

Regards,
Murat

​Murat bless you.

>What kind of a selection list do you have in mind?​

​Well your lovely plugin already does give me a list on a tab.
It - delightfully - lets me click a Tag and see which Pages has it. Great.
Also could list above.
So far so good.
But the Tag list is a single column ​- so a lot of scrolling. Think 300 Tags.
I would ideally like to see that in columns - perhaps a settings option? plus option on number of columns? I'd personally make it 4 columns and widen the area.
Plus move them into categories.
Next project the Search - needs to be 100% availabe bottom of GUI and the results box is much too small.
(I haven't looked at the edit possibilities to change the look yet will do that now.)

Glad you're there.
