Pretty new DT3 user here. I am trying to merge similar (and identical) tags, after I imported my data from a messy Evernote system. I noticed that sometimes when I select two tags and right-click, I get the option to merge the tags, and some other times, I don’t.
Why is that? Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong here?
Just to demonstrate, it works in this case when I try to merge 14-02 and 14-03:
As I suspected.
You have the top level Tags selected. That means you’re seeing a union of the tags groups of all open databases. That also means you’re occasionally trying to merge tags in different databases, which you can’t do.
Thank you, that makes sense. And it it also explains why there are several tags with exactly the same name.
If I wanted to decapitalize all tags, and not do much extra work because some of them are in a bunch of databases, could I pull all data into one of the databases, perform my cleanup, and then move everything back to where it came from?

No, that woud not be a good idea as it would take the tagged files along with the tag groups.
I will make a suggestion later (as I’m on the road).
