    Check that the condition indicator is on. View > Show Condition Indicator

    ...and don't forget to hide them before you print/publish

    1. set up a condition tag
    2. apply this condition tag to selected content

    I think you may have missed the second step :-}

    What operating system are you using and how are you accessing that dialog?

    Tags are not about highlighting text but to create expressions to include or exclude content. Content that is tagged is shown by a line above the text.

    Also I see you the file has the .fm extension which is for a FrameMaker document, not a RoboHelp topic.

    Can you please give some more information to clarify things?
