Label Generator for a subset of assets #495

Description

@OBoudreaux

What is the problem you are trying to solve with this feature?

The majority of my assets in Hombox do not need any physical labels (too small, too obvious, only care about location, etc). It would be great to only generate labels for those assets that I would actually use them on.

What is the solution you are proposing?

"Label" in this context can refer to the digital tagging of items or a printed qr code. To differentiate, I use "tag" to refers to the digital label and "label" for the physical sticker.

Leverage the tag system with something like a "needs printed label" and, possibly, a "has printed label" tag. The label generator would only generate labels for those assets tagged "needs printed label". Once printed the user would have the option to clear the "needs printed label" tags.

What alternatives have you considered?

No response

Additional context

Might consider making the "needs printed label" tag a user defined variable so there is no conflict with existing tags.
