I've upgraded to the new Windows MLO 5 and saw the new Text Tag property.

What are your tops tips, ideas and best practice for using the new Text Tags alongside Contexts, Flags, etc?

How do you use them if you also use MLO on a mobile device (iPhone, iPad)?

Thanks in advance.

I use them the way you are supposed to use contexts. My context are exclusively location and work or personal identifiers. I use the text tags for identifying active work vs delegated work vs can wait work. And on the desktop I Group by text tag. On the mobile devices I do not use text tags at all because I do not think we can change them on mobile devices. Maybe someone will tell me I am wrong haha. Hope that helps. Have a great week. PS I put a number at the beginning of each text tag so that when I group by text tag the active ones are at the top and the least important ones are at the bottom.

Can you add multiple text tags, like you can Contexts?

Cheers,

Phil.

I can only choose one out of a set of choices at a time. Punctuation does not appear to allow multiples either, it just creates one line with punctuation. The drop down list will still list an unused entry until you restart MLO.
