window ID tag adjustment

[filip]

Dear vw users,

I like t make the window id tag smaller in my drawings, but I can't find the path for that symbol.

Has anyone a idea?

best regards

Are you using the Data Tag?

[filip]

I don't think so, it's called ID-tag in the windowtoolbox. see screenshot of a fragment op a floorplan, 

and you see that those wind id parkings are to big; I wan't them to be half that size.

best regards

Simply select the window and set the text size from the Menu Bar  drop down  Text>Size

Use one of the data tags with incremental numbering…

As a general "best practices", I'd recommend using Data Tags and tag your objects on your sheet layers in your viewports...this way they will scale properly if you need to make an Enlarged Stair Plan or Enlarged Toilet Room Plan or similar.  You can also create a tag specific to your office standard and save it in the Resource Manager where you can then share it/export it/ copy and paste it to another file.

Dear Wes,

is there a tutorial for the use of Data Tags,

I can't find a Data Tag somewhere in the menus.
