    Hello!

    Let's say I have all my documents with TAGS. OK.
    Let's say I want to find documents with the TAG New York. I just hit that TAG. OK.
    Let's say I want to find documents with the TAG Buildings. I just hit that TAG. OK.

    Now... What if I want to find documents with both TAGS? I can't seem to find a way to select both TAGS, so just documents with both New York and Buildings TAGS appear.

    Is it even possible?

    Thanks!

    Yes, use the AND operator for that. If you use the search field in a Finder window you can add an additional rule. In this case there is no need to. Simply enter the name of the tag, select it, hit space, enter the second tag, etc; it will automatically search anything that has all the tags you just entered (so basically it uses the AND operator by default).

    If you want to find items that either have tag1 or tag2 you need to type in the following:
    Code:
    tag:tag1 OR tag2

    Nice, thanks!
    Will work until they do something to make it easier. It should be possible to select multiple tags.

    Again, thanks!
