Description Claire 2025-03-30 22:17:33 UTC
Allow filtering by tags using the filter function. We can already filter by file extension and simple strings, and obviously we can search by tags, but it would be useful to be able to filter by a tag. i.e, say I have a tag "foo". If I apply the tag filter foo to dolphin, navigating to folders should only show files with foo. Conversely, if I put "!foo", it would show files that do not have the tag foo.

An interesting idea...

You have the "tag folders", seen in the Places sidebar, but these show all indexed files with the given tag. You are looking for "tagged files in this folder" or "files that don't have the tag in this folder."

Yep, precisely that.
