There was apparently something wrong with the family itself - the wall tag family that is, so it's cool now. Thanks and keep up the good work! Thanks. but it’s ok now.

It may use different field for wall properties. To make sure, can you send the template file so we can examine it? I think in your custom template, you use custom wall tag or different tag.

So now I need to find out what's wrong with my template, because it is the one I need to use and I need to fix the bug with not showing the wall tags. Any ideas anyone? PS

Is there anything else to wall tags you could share so as to find out why my wall tags don't work?

See image attachment, it's the part tag. You can find it below annotation folder in Revit family library. You can load part tag and use it with tag all or tag by category.

How should I apply the tag that you are implying. Thank you for the quick response. Yes, I am on 2012 and I have broken the wall to individual panels.

What version are you using? If you already use Revit 2012, have you tried to divide it to parts? You can tag part separately. Hi Boyantcho,

I am a precast engineer. Revit is not very useful in our field, but recently we see a lot specs calling for it. I now the basics and have done a few courses, but want to ask you a question regarding wall tags. On our drawings (erection drawings) we have piece marks for every panel. This mark can repeat if the panels are identical i.e., it is not unique number. Is there a workaround of creating a custom tag that I can apply to my panels. My long shot will be to have two entries, one will be the piece mark (can repeat if I want to) and one that is unique number (control number, consecutive number). Thank you in advance. Hi Edwin.
