3. Click on the 'Add List Cards to Stack' control ( icon) in the Cards tab to add the filtered cards to the stack.

• To filter the list of cards using tags, click on one or more tag names in the Tags sidebar.

• To quickly add all cards with a certain tag to the stack, click on the number next to the tag name in the Tags sidebar. The current stack contents will be replaced by all cards with that tag.
