Some Walls not Eligible for Data Tags

[jakemw]

Hi all,

 

Having some issues with data tags in view ports. In model space, I can tag all of my walls, but in a viewport (or section for instance) only some walls are eligible. Any fix for this?

 

As shown below, all these stair walls can be tagged, but not the exterior parkade one???

We chased a problem like this a few months ago. Maybe you have the same problem.

 

The answer then was that the walls had a different IFC pSet than the one the Data Tag was looking for.

 

Check the Walls that are tagable and see if the ones that are not taxable use the same IFC. This is in the Data pane of the Object Info Palette (OIP).

Hey Pat,

 

I am able to tag all of the walls in the design layers. However, as soon as I move to a viewport it makes 50% of them ineligible.

 

All of the IFC data appears to be the same between the walls I can tag in viewport, and the walls I cannot.

Can you post or direct message me (a preferably cut down) version of the file that demonstrates the problem? I will be happy to take a look. I will also need a description of exactly what you try so I can try to duplicate your actions.
