Trying to use my material tag to tag a wall surface that has been painted in elevation but can't seem to select the painted surface in plan. How do I get around it?

Thanks for helping a newbie.

Use an Elevation instead!

"Finish Plans" are not really very good, because what happens when you have multiple materials on the same wall? Revit won't know which material/height on the wall it should be tagging..........without using some crazy Plan Region workarounds which are really not worth it.

Just a thought....

cheers

Hi,

tagging "painted" walls in plan is now possible with a utility in ARUtils. If your wall has simply been painted with a material you can now tag it in plan.
