To Tag in a Project

Use this procedure to tag objects in a project drawing.

One of the most frequent uses of annotation in a project is tagging the individual objects. It is recommended that you tag objects in view drawings. You can create project-specific tags that display project information or use the default project-based schedule tags that are in the Document tool palettes. The difference between a standard schedule tag and a project-based schedule tag is that a project-based schedule tag recognizes the level in the project in which the object is located. When you want this additional information captured, use a project-based schedule tag.

1. Open the view drawing in which to add your tags.
2. Open the tool palette that contains the tag you want to use, and select the tool.

   Predefined project tag tools are located in the Documentation Catalog in the Content Browser. You can add these tools to any tool palette.

3. Select the object to which to attach the tag.
   Note: You can select an object within an external reference.
4. Specify the location of the tag.
5. If prompted, enter property set data for the object in the Edit Property Set Data dialog box, and click OK.

   If property set data is not yet attached to the object, you can attach an appropriate property set from the current drawing or the Schedule Tables.dwg file in C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ACA <version>\enu\Styles\<Imperial or Metric>.

6. Enter m, press Enter, and select multiple objects to tag.
7. Alternatively, press Enter, and add schedule tags one at a time.
