The Tag option is only available while you are a member of a fleet, and in a command role (i.e. FC, WC, or SC). If you are alone, you may simply form a fleet with yourself (your default role with be FC).

To tag an object, simply right-click, select "Tag" from the context menu, and you will be given a choice of numbers or letters. Pick the number or letter you wish to use and you are done.

~~== Bracket Presets ==~~

~~Brackets are the little icons you see in space, depicting different objects. Sometimes having too many of them can cause lag, but they are often useful.~~

There are occasions on which you might want your brackets to show different things than are on your overview. For example, bracket settings with drones selected, where my main overview settings do not show drones. This is because there are often swarms of drones about, which can quickly clog up one’s overview.

One example of a time you might want to see drone brackets in space is in missions. You want to warp off, but you don’t know whether your drones are still out. If you have drone brackets set, you can easily see when your drones are no longer in space. Additionally, you can see when someone has drones attacking you in PvP. This can be very useful.

~~Again, bear in mind that brackets can cause lag - use them at your own risk.~~

~~To create a bracket setting:~~

~~#Load the particular preset you want to create bracket settings for. For example, you might want drones on your wormhole setting, so you would load '''6 - Wormhole''' .~~

~~#Add or remove items you do or don’t want to see in space (eg. drones).~~

~~#Save the setting as something you’re going to recognize as a bracket setting. For example, you might save your setting as '''6 - Wormhole B''' .~~

~~See the next section to see how to set assign bracket presets.~~
