Bring back Tags under the project view

Dovetail 3.0 is much harder to navigate and especially access the project tags, I have to click on a tag then go to tags to see all the tags when before I could easily switch between notes, highlights and tags. It is frustrating and time consuming!

Hello Tolani Adekoya! I have a few more questions for you:
- Can you describe how you used the tags feature in the previous version to improve your workflow?
- What specific tasks are you finding more time-consuming with the new navigation?
- Are there any other features in the new version that you find difficult to use or access?

- I would use the tags to highlight key themes or topics then organise them into categories on a board. I found this useful as I could sort them into alphabetical order which also helped with quicker analysis when tagging. Being able to access the tags on the side panel allowed me to easily switch between notes and tags especially when I wanted to edit a tag. After analysis, I would go back to the tags to refine them, merge similar tags and etc. It was also a helpful feature for stakeholders to get a high level view of key insights at a glance without having to go into the nitty gritty details/ insights board.
- I am finding it very time-consuming to edit tags or change a tag. I have had to favourite the tags page as I can only access it from clicking on the tag, then manage tags to view all the tags again.
Re:changing a tag, I found that to be a painpoint in the previous version too, when I click into tags and look at the insights, I find that I sometimes want to move an insight to another tag and I am not able to do so from the tag view, I need to go back to the interview find the highlight and then change it from there.
- I think that is all for now. Thank you

Update: a colleague shared how to add the tag views back and to me this was not very intuitive. Especially having the + button next to the 3 dot CTA (which is my first instinct to click on).
