This is really not clear, can you try being more descriptive about what you're trying to do ?

I'm not sure if this is what @chen_zhe means, but I'll reframe the way I've had what I think is the same question:

Let's say I have dozens up to thousands of instances of a UDT, each with possibly multiple levels of hierarchy in the UDT tag structure. It is then extremely cumbersome for a user to quickly pick out a tag and chart/compare values for that tag across a subset or all instances of the UDT. Instead, the user might have to spend significant time digging through folder structures to select tags.

I haven't implemented this answer yet, but my current plan was to try using the Tag Browse Tree component instead of the PowerChart's built-in tag browser. Then I am hoping to use filtereBrowseNode and a simple text box to allow a user to input strings or possibly regex to filter results into Tag Browse Tree.

This is what I started a while back. It makes it super easy to find and multi select lots of tags and add to the power chart at once.

To me, a tree component just makes it hard to select lots of tags within different folders

Thinkijg about it now, maybe it would be useful to have both options, as sometimes it _might_ be helpful to use the tree as well
