All About Tagging Recipes
Applies to: NYC v5.16 and higher
You can use NYC's recipe tagging feature to earmark certain recipes for some later operation (e.g., print, import/export, search, categorize, delete, etc).
Each NYC cookbook has a tagged list. Recipes in a search results list can also be tagged, so tagging recipes in cookbooks other than the open cookbook is easy. Searches across cookbooks can be invoked using the Search... button from any of these windows: recipe select, menu edit, print, import/export NYC cookbook.
To tag recipes in your open cookbook:
1. Select Recipes... Recipes... (or press the "R" toolbar
button).
2. Select recipes in the recipe list, and press the Tag
button.
To tag recipes across cookbooks:

search window and press the Tag button.
