			Would love an easier way to edit tags per book.  Currently it can only be done by editing the tag stream 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	eg. Arson, Mystery Fiction, Women Sleuths, Rich people - Crimes against, San Francisco, Mystery & Detective - Women Sleuths, California, Suspense Fiction, Mystery, Fiction, Crime, Thriller, Women detectives - California - San Francisco, Rich people, Women Detectives, Mystery & Detective, American, Suspense, Missing persons - Investigation, Missing Persons, Mystery & Suspense, Espionage Trying to resolve this in-line is tedious. Is it possible to provide a tag editor that would display each of these in a column, preferably sorted, and allow changes to that column then insert the column into the tag field with commas between the entries. So in column form American Arson California Crime Espionage Fiction Missing Persons Missing persons - Investigation Mystery Mystery & Detective Mystery & Detective - Women Sleuths Mystery & Suspense Mystery Fiction Rich people Rich people - Crimes against San Francisco Suspense Suspense Fiction Thriller Women Detectives Women detectives - California - San Francisco Women Sleuths Which can then be culled as required to say American Arson California Crime Espionage Fiction Missing Persons Mystery Detective Women Sleuths San Francisco Suspense Thriller and then converted to a stream with commas in between eg American, Arson, California, Crime, Espionage, Fiction, Missing Persons, Mystery, Detective, Women Sleuths, San Francisco, Suspense, Thriller which hopefully says it all and makes searching for books by tag much more sensible.  |

			Manage Tags is also useful in cleaning  up superfluous/erroneous tags, it can be sorted on usage count which helps. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	And you can access the Tag Editor from the Book List with Shift/F2 in a Tags cell. BR  |
