You can add so-called tags to an element if you want to add information to the element's metadata (Figure 1315, “Tag Letter”).

  1. Select the respective element in the empower® Library.

  2. On the bottom of the window, click on the pen symbol (Figure 1316, “Pen Symbol”).

    A dialog box opens (Figure 1317, “Window Tags”).

  1. In the dialog box, choose one of the tags from the tag list or enter your own tag and press Enter.

    You can add as many tags as you want.

    1. To add multiple tags at once in the text field, separate your keywords with non-breaking spaces.

      To create a non-breaking space, hold the key Alt while typing 0160 with the number block.

  1. If you have finished, click on the button OK (Figure 1318, “Button OK”).

    Your tags will be added to the element. They are displayed along with the metadata on the bottom of the library window (Figure 1319, “Metadata Info Tags”).

    1. If you have added multiple tags at once using non-breaking spaces, close the empower® Library and open it again to view the separate tags.

      After closing the tag editor, the tags will first be displayed as one single tag.

If you want to add the same tag to multiple elements, select multiple elements at once by holding down the key Ctrl while clicking on the elements. Then, click on the pen symbol.

Now, follow the steps to add tags.

In addition, you can add tags to an element directly when you save it.

To do so, click on the pen symbol next to Add a tag in the library window (Figure 1320, “Add a Tag When Saving”).
