    Default Tag multiple objects.

    Hi all,

    This may be a wish list item but I'll ask the question anyway. Does anyone know how to (if it's possible) tag multiple items with one tag. For example, I have a rack of conduits that I want to tag with a summary of conduit sizes and the elevations (top and bottom) of the largest conduit. If my rack has (3) 4" conduits and (5) 3" conduits I want the tag to say:

    (3) 4"C
    (5) 3"C
    T. 12'-4"
    B. 12'-0"

    I've created a tag that grabs the conduit size and top and bottom elevations but it only works on a per conduit basis and not on multiple conduits.

    Any ideas?

    Have you looked at the command line to see if there is an option for Multiple? I know when tagging items in ADT, you have this option once you've placed the first tag. After that, the option for Multiple becomes available.

    Thanks for the response Steve.

    Unfortunately ABS must not be the same as ADT. The multiple option is not available. However that does give me hope that it is possible. Any ideas?
