Hello MG, OK, so I'm not sure I fully understand what you want to achieve.
In your example, you suggest creating "a custom flag with a name of person and particular icon", then you suggest assigning that flag based on an autoformat rule, which picks up on the use of a specific category, caption property (ie text term in the caption?) or tag. You mentioned a "flag button" this time. Does that mean you'd like to set up some custom buttons which allow you to assign a flag (eg flag title "Jim Smith" with a flag icon which is a picture of "Jim Smith") to a task? Apologies for being slow to understand. Perhaps another example would help, or perhaps use a graphics app to mock up how it would look on a screenshot?
