Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I use short category prefixes in tag names for organization (e.g., vg- for “Video Games,” mv- for “Movies,” etc.). These improve structure and search precision, but they clutter the UI – especially in gallery/grid views – making tags harder to scan.
Describe the solution you’d like
A per-category setting to hide a defined prefix in the UI only.
-
Example: Tag stored as
vg-elden_ringdisplays aselden_ringin cards, thumbnails, and grids. -
Searches and filenames remain unchanged; the prefix is only suppressed visually.
-
Optional toggle: “Show hidden prefixes” to reveal the raw tag when needed.
-
Works across perspectives (list, grid, gallery), tooltips, and tag filters.
Describe alternatives you’ve considered
-
Dropping prefixes entirely (loses disambiguation and category grouping).
-
Relying on colors alone (helps visually, not semantically).
Additional context
Primary benefit is readability without sacrificing existing tag structure or filename compatibility.
