I would like to know what is the use of the "enter tags" text box in the default Brushes / Patterns / Gradients panel. Is this new feature described somewhere ?

Right now in the drop down list there is already the word "round", if I select it it adds a dot after it and waits for another word. I don't understand a thing (but perhaps I am not familiar with the meaning of the English word "tag").

Thank you, Cristi

Thinks of tags as of very small labels that can only contain a word or two to describe characteristics of something.

For example tags for an apple could be: round, green, red, tasty.

You can assign such tags to resources such as brushes so that you could group e.g. all brushes that share a common feature. For example you ned only round brushes. So you tag all round brushes as "round" and then at any time you can enter that tag, and only brushes that have "round" tag will be displayed.

Oh. After several attempts I finally realized that this field works in conjunction with the "find" field.

It appears this is not self-explanatory, it should be "assign or remove a tag", or something similar (IMO).

Thank you very much, at least I have understand what to search for.
