What

Clicking a tag's element count in the Tags settings tab now opens the project search dialog in browse mode with that tag pre-selected and the filter panel expanded, listing every element carrying the tag.

Previously it opened only the first tagged element and showed a snackbar saying N more exist, which wasn't a useful way to browse.

Changes

  • ProjectSearchService.open() accepts optional initial data (tagIds), passed to the dialog via MAT_DIALOG_DATA.
  • ProjectSearchDialogComponent seeds selectedTagIds and showFilters from that data (injected optionally, so the keyboard-shortcut path is unchanged).
  • TagsTabComponent.viewTaggedElements delegates to the search service; the zero-count snackbar is kept.
  • Removed the now-unused openedWithMore and taggedElementsNotFound i18n strings (en is the only locale).
  • README roadmap: replaced the open "Tag filtering in project tree" item with a done "Browse elements by tag" row.

Why not a tree filter?

The roadmap item for filtering the sidebar tree by tag has been sitting open for a while. Search browse mode already does the job, and a tree filter would conflict with drag-and-drop, which derives valid drop levels from the contiguous visible row list. Connecting the Tags tab to search gives the same outcome without that complexity.

Testing

  • project-search.service.spec, project-search-dialog.component.spec, tags-tab.component.spec: 116 tests pass, including new cases for data pass-through, pre-selected filter state, and the initial filtered browse.
  • Lint and tsc --noEmit clean.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Browse project elements by tag using project search.
    • Open tag-filtered search directly from the Tags settings tab.
    • Tag filters are pre-selected when opening search from a tagged-elements view.
    • Search opens in browse mode with the filter panel expanded when applicable.
  • Documentation

    • Updated the feature roadmap to reflect completed tag-based browsing.

Clicking a tag's element count in the Tags settings tab used to open only
the first tagged element and toast that others exist. It now opens the
project search dialog in browse mode with that tag pre-selected and the
filter panel expanded, so every element with the tag is listed at once.

- ProjectSearchService.open() accepts optional initial data (tagIds)
- Search dialog seeds its tag filter and panel state from MAT_DIALOG_DATA
- Remove the now-unused openedWithMore / taggedElementsNotFound strings
- Mark the 'tag filtering in project tree' roadmap item as covered by
  search browse mode instead of adding a redundant sidebar filter

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Tags tab now opens project search in browse mode with the selected tag applied. The dialog receives optional tag data and expands its filters when tags are pre-selected. English translations and the roadmap describe the updated behaviour.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 1041a

Browsing a tag with stale assignments may open an empty filtered search even though its count is positive, without explaining that no matching elements remain. This is a bounded usability regression that should be addressed before relying on the new browsing flow.

A rabbit taps the Tags tab bright
Search opens with filters in sight
One tag hops into place
Browse mode starts the chase
The project map feels light

- Line 283: Update the tag-click handling around ProjectSearchService.open to
verify that the selected tag resolves to at least one element in
ProjectStateService.elements before opening the search dialog; when no matching
elements remain, preserve the taggedElementsNotFound feedback instead of opening
an empty result.

Tag assignments can outlive their elements, so a tag with a non-zero count
may resolve to no existing elements. Check against the current element list
before opening project search and show the not-found snackbar instead.
