# The All Tags Edit Panel

The All Tags panel displays all non empty tags found in selected files. The All Tags panel only displays current values.

The table displays the description, the type and the value (or a summary of) each item. The Description field displays the name associated with the item. The Type field identifies the type of the tag. Simple tags such as Artist, Album, etc. have a type of Field. Custom fields are identified as Custom.

With the exception of User Defined Text Info and User Defined URL items, all multi item tag types are displayed with a description starting with the name of the tag. This is due to the fact that they are typically only used in ID3 based files and typically have at most a single item. User Defined Text Info and User Defined URL tag types represent the majority of non standard tag items and are available across all supported audio file tag schemes. While User Defined URLs only firmly exist in ID3 based files, Yate places unclassified FLAC/OGG, MPEG-4 and APE tags into this category when they seem to represent a URL.

Simple tags such as Artist, Album, etc. are not displayed if they have an empty value.

Tags such as Love, Rating and boolean valued fields display a friendly representation. The actual content is displayed in parenthesis.

All editing and manipulation is done via the context menu and is described here. There are a number of context menu items which are only available on the All Tags editing panel.

When creating new items, you are doing so for all the currently selected files. When creating simple tags, any existing items in the current file selection will be overwritten. You will be warned on each attempt.

The All Tags editing panel has its own find functionality. When the panel has the focus the Edit>Find menu items (and associated keyboard shortcuts) will use the panel's find functionality.
