How to check which tag database is currently active?

How to which tag database is currently active?
I often switch tag databases and it seems there is no visual clue of which tag database is currently in use.

Only idea...

Put it on a toolbar button and use it to load / reload or see the current one (does only work if you've used it at least once to load a db^^)

Requires:
Configuration | General | Refresh, Icons, History | Scripting | [x] Remember permanent variables

Code: Select all

    perm $P_TAG_DB;

    $menu = "";
    if (exists($P_TAG_DB) == 1) { $menu = $P_TAG_DB . <crlf> . "-" . <crlf>; }
    $menu .= "Load Tags Database|load" . <crlf> . "Reload Tags Database|reload";

    $sel = popupmenu($menu, 6:=<crlf>, 7:="|");
    end (!$sel);
    if ($sel == "load") {
        $path = ($P_TAG_DB) ? gpc($P_TAG_DB, "path") : <xydata>;
        $db   = inputfile($path, ".dat", "Select your tag database file...");
        if ($db) { $P_TAG_DB = tagload($db, 3); }

    } elseif ($sel == "reload") {
        #887;
    } else {
        tagload($P_TAG_DB, 0);
    }

1) It is listed at the bottom of Help | Various Information.

2) It is shown in the tooltip of the label right of the Options button here: Configuration | Information | Tags | Currently 894 items are tagged.

3) It's in the variable <xytagdat>.

Then you should use it in the titlebar template

i updated my title bar template and it is quite useful; however, when using

Code: Select all

<xytagdat>

, is there a way to only show the file (right now it shows full path and file) ?

[admin]

Next beta:

Code: Select all

    + New variable:
        <xytagdatfile>    = XYplorer tags database file (without path)
