Sorry, it’s a bug. As a workaround, you can “commit” your changes in the inspector before closing it by pressing Tab or Return. Or simply assign the tags using the bar at the bottom of the browser window.
Thanks, I can confirm that using the bar at the bottom of the browser window to add tags to the record made the tags “stick”. I noticed however that in the browser window that displays the records, the first column is labelled “Tags” and this column appears blank regardless of whether a record has tags assigned or not.
Are tags supposed to be displayed in this field after they have been assigned to a particular record?
The Tags column is for showing the abbreviations (settable in the Tags inspector) of the assigned tags. If your tags don’t have abbreviations, then the Tags column can appear blank even though some tags are assigned.
Okay, got it. Thanks for responding so rapidly to all of my questions. I appreciate it and I intend to become a registered user of EagleFiler shortly… MacSanta is too tempting to resist!
Fortunately there are a few more days to resist that temptation before making a decision. I’m barely recovered from some emotional turmoil about the controversial MacHeist, which I semi-reluctantly bought into during the final hour with my innocent wife purchasing it for me as an early Christmas gift.
