Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

I have created quite a few tags, every time I have to manually enter a tag in the notes field I never remember how I wrote it and have to go check on the tags page

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

When I enter the # character in the notes field, an autocomplete should open to help me select the tag based on my typing (like when I have to enter a payee or a category)

You could add a "close" or "cancel" button to insert only the # character without the tag (could this be a use case?)
