Aneesh Carvalho Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Hi, I am trying to use data tags to callout the material of a component of the wall style, but I am not able to figure out how to do it. I've tried creating finish records and attaching it to a material. I've assigned the material to a component layer of my wall style, but somehow the data tag i created, does not callout the material "Tag" field even after defining the tag definition text to show the tag field of the finish. This was the workflow I thought would work well. However, I am open to suggestions of alternate workflows and ideas. Thank You! Quote Link to comment

Tom W. Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 @Aneesh Carvalho I'm not sure what thread @Hans-Olav posted as I can't see it for some reason but this is one I was going to suggest looking at: 1 Quote Link to comment
Aneesh Carvalho Posted May 2, 2022 Author Share Posted May 2, 2022 Thanks @Hans-Olav and @Tom W. I am not able to see the tread that Hans-Olaf shared either but I’ll definitely need to go through the second post in detail. It seems like it might have the answer to my problems! Quote Link to comment
Hans-Olav Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Sorry My post was from the wrong forum. attached is a example to play with. datatag.vwx The Tag pulls info from the data pane in the wall style edit window. 2 Quote Link to comment
