Regarding Update 1647773058250 on tag color formatting

Jorge

The tags work case insensitively, but the tag formatting is tag sensitive. So if I have a tag prefix in entries as “Complex” and I type “complex” in the tag format, it doesn’t catch the tags that are not typed exactly the sam eway.

Fix on the way!

Jorge

So I tried the update but its not working for me. I got one update beyond the one that corrects this, but still my tags are not being found correctly. e.g. “goal” is not being formatted correctly if the Tags options were set for “Goal”. However the reverse does function correctly e.g. if i enter a Tag Display option as “goal” then all the entries with “goal” and “Goal” are highlighted properly.

Jorge Can you try typing into the the tag prefix you’d set in the settings? The fix changed it to save them as lowercase no matter what you type, so if you had entered an uppercase tag before the fix it would still be saved as uppercase. So just modifying the text there would make it save as lowercase.

Jorge

Yes I tried it and it’s working.

@Jay Reopening this as I found another bug in the tag formatting
Given 2 levels of prefixes in the tags,
When you have 2 tags that start with the same prefix (there might be 2 levels of tag prefixes embedded) Legend is assuming that only the first match will apply.

It seems that you are parsing the display settings for the tags and stopping when you find the first match.
This example shows incorrect formatting when I set the #cat first and the #catproblems afterwards.

However if I invert the order and set the #catproblems first and the #cat afterwards, the tags are formatted correctly.

I am lowering the priority as there is a workaround so no rush, but it might be confusing for new users.
