HashTags

Overview

Hashtags are lightweight, flexible labels you can attach to any point, cluster, or bag in Mantis. They help you organize, track, and revisit ideas across complex spaces — like digital sticky notes for your data.

Purpose

  • Quickly annotate data points or selections with themes, notes, or categories.
  • Create custom groupings independent of clustering or bag structure.
  • Instantly filter or highlight all points with the same tag.

Key Features

  • Custom Labels: Add your own hashtags like #important, #followup, #hypothesis1 to selected content.
  • Universal Access: Tags apply across views, floors, and data types — from papers to images to molecules.
  • One-Click Filtering: Click a hashtag to show or isolate all tagged items.
  • Collaborative Tagging: Use shared hashtags across a team to maintain consistent organization.

Tips

  • Use hashtags to track tasks (e.g., #review, #includeInReport).
  • Combine hashtags with Flashcards or Reports for thematic structure.
  • Layer hashtags with bags for multi-dimensional curation (e.g., #AI in Green1 bag).
