The tag system allows you to filter and visualize nodes based on their tags, providing a powerful way to focus on specific aspects of your vault's structure. You can both filter the graph to show only notes with specific tags and visualize these tags directly on the graph using colored arcs around the nodes.

The tag settings panel includes several key options.

Using the Tag System

tags in graph

  • Use the legend at the bottom of the graph to toggle specific tags
  • Clicking a tag in the legend toggles visibility of nodes with that tag
  • Notes without any enabled tags are automatically hidden from the graph

If the Legend is hidden, you can show it with the tags button:
