Regenerate the tag group after changing the filters
The Generate Tag Group tool runs automatically after you have saved your changes. However, you may need to run it if new items have been added to areas or groups.
This will update the tag group contents based on the filters.
Using multiple filters
You can add as many filters as you like to the set of filters. The collection of tags defined by each filter will be added to the tag group.
Ordering filters
The Filters tab provides tools to specify the order in which filters are applied. The order in which filters are applied controls the order in which tags are displayed on the Tags tab and in any other lists and menus. If a tag is selected by more than one filter, it will appear on the list for the first filter that selected it.
To change the order in which filters are applied, use the Up and
Down controls on the Filters tab.
Note
Changing the filter order does not affect the content of the tag group, just the sort and display order of the tags.
