Tags View in Command is not listing tags

[BObsidian]

New to Obsidian so I’ve been testing.

What I’m trying to do

I’ve got some tags in a couple cards but when I open the command (right side) bar, the “Tags” prompt does not show any tags. **If I search using the top-left search function, my tags show up. But I would rather have all the tags listed which is what I understand the right Command section to be for.

Things I have tried

++Researched others in the help and on general web search over the last 2 hours with no results.
++Turned plug in off and on.
++Reentered tags

some tags in a couple cards

Are we talking about cards as in canvases?

Do you experience the same issue when adding tags to a normal note?

Thanks, this did help me find something. If I add a note from vault, I see that the tag shows up. But if it is in a card, it doesn’t show up. I guess I am not sure what my other mindmapped items are but I would hate to lose the tags I made there. (And why do they show up in the “tags” on the left but not in the right side/command area?)

I am realizing I need to be more familiar with these terms…any particular resource that teaches this simply? I’ve watched some videos but still am unclear.

Remember that the canvas is a somewhat new addition to Obsidian, but also check out the feature request below:

Allow tags for a canvas / Support tags in canvas cards

Use case or problem I’d like to be able to assign tags to a canvas. Proposed solution Please add a function to the canvas that allows doing so.

One of the posts explicit mentions how tags are searchable, but still not found in the tag list.

Not sure which resources to recommend, but hang around, search a little, play a little, and you’ll get the hang of it and the terms used.
