f30e6e60-a263-4d69-8f60-c92703669308 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Page 10 of the Retrospect User's Guide Addendum provides steps to view tagged sources, and ends with the assertion "All sources with the “laptop” tag are displayed." While Volumes with a tag that matches the search criteria will show, Favorites similarly tagged will not. Steps: Sources->Tags: create a tag "test" Click on Add Favorites in the List View Toolbar Navigate to any folder within the volume and click "Add to Favorite Folders" Click "Done" Select newly created Favorite and check the "test" tag Click on the "+" icon in the Scope Bar In the Filter Toolbar select "Tags" & "Contains" from the popup menus, then type "test" into the text field. Press Return Note nothing is displayed. Delete text and press return to display all Sources again Select the boot volume of the Engine host machine and check the "test" tag Again type "test" into the Filter Toolbar "Tags contains" text field Press Return Note the tagged Volume is shown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve Maser Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Is this with 8.2 or 9.0? I'm seeing this in my 9.0 trial (using an old config80.dat file) -- but I'm not getting any results for the Volume tag, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My configuration file is from the beta, but I haven't installed the release on a clean machine yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm seeing "test" work if I set "test" as a tag for the *internal engine hard disk* volume (but not for any favorite folders on the same volume). But none of my *clients* are showing if I tag either their volumes or their favorite folders. Other client search options work, however. I haven't tried a clean-install config80.dat file, though. - Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't tried that (which is why it's not in my steps to reproduce!). Buggers. Tags can't replace Retrospect Classic's Folders and Groups without the ability to easily see what's been tagged.
