I am just starting to dig into the new tag and comment functionality in QV10. I believe I understand how it works, but I am wondering about a few things.
1) Can tags be used in expressions? For example, I'm thinking of something like:
IF (MyField.$text = true, x, y)
If they could, I could think of a lot of uses for it. Especially the custom tags.
2) Can comments be used as pop up text for dimensions in charts?
3) Can either comments or tags be used to set field labels? Currently I do this with variables, but I consider it somewhat a hack.
Maybe these aren't questions, but feature requests for a future service release of QlikView [:)]

These are all great suggestions for future use of Tags and Comments. Our focus in V10 was around getting the metadata loaded and make them visible in field selection areas (Dimensions, List Boxes, Expressions). But your thinking is in line with where we want to expand the usage of both tags and comments.
Please feel free to send along any others (use this forum or the Ideas Exchange)

HI,
I have asked a question regarding getting Field comments to show for list boxs. If either of you can help that would be much appreciated.
