Edit or delete a label

Rename a label or change its colour on the Labels screen, or delete it. Deleting a label never deletes a file.

Both jobs happen on the Labels screen, from the two buttons at the end of each label's row: the pencil edits it, the bin deletes it. The number beside them is how many files carry the label.

The right-hand end of the Labels screen. A New Label button sits at the top. Below it seven rows, each ending in a file count, a pencil and a bin: 5 files, 5 files, 4 files, 7 files, 7 files, 4 files and 6 files.
The pencil and the bin act on that row's label alone.

Rename or recolour a label

  1. Go to Labels and select the pencil on the label's row. The row turns into a name box with the eight colour swatches beside it.

  2. Change the name, select a different colour, or both.

    The Board label's row in edit mode, among the other labels. The right-hand end of its name box is followed by eight colour swatches with purple ringed, then Cancel and a blue Save button. The rows above and below still show their file counts, pencils and bins.
  3. Select Save.

The change reaches every file with the label at once. Nothing needs relabelling.

Delete a label

  1. Go to Labels and select the bin on the label's row.

  2. Select Delete.

    A confirmation panel headed Delete Label, reading Delete label Client-facing? It will be removed from all files, with Cancel and a red Delete button.
