    Default Apparent in-place family/component tagging inconsistency.

    I have a project that contains both library sourced and in-place created door component/families, and in-place created windows only.

    I can number and schedule all the elements concerned, but Revit will only tag the library sourced doors, and the created in-place windows, but won't tag the created in-place door.

    Does anyone have any tips/advice to get the in-place door to take a tag? Or do I just draft up a "fake" tag?

    Thanks.

    And yet it tags the door in elevation as normal....

    I made a test; I created a Model In-place door; then I applied a tag to it in plan view, as well as in elevation; the tags worked fine, and the door appears correctly in a door schedule. No problem at all. My test was done using Revit Architecture 2011.

    after what Alfredo said, maybe check your visibility settings, they are per view

    Update: Looks like the door did take a tag after all, but check out the attached pic to see where Revit put my many attempts...

    ... then go figure, 'cause that's what I'm doing...

    Thanks for your help, and / or any further comments / observations..

    Does it still place the tags away from the door like the picture shows?

    Tony, you may want to check your in place door for any accidental space junk that is floating away from the door geometry. Revit usually tags to what it perceives as the center of geometry.

    Its going to place the Tag at the "center" of the In Place family. Are their reference planes in the family that reach really far out in to space like that?
