Cloud and tag revisoin clouds

[vanderloo5]

Can anyone tell me why- when I have "cloud and tag" selected to show in my revisions, the clouds aren't tagging automatically?
I have to manually add tags after creating each cloud.
Thank You

The setting on what to show in the Sheet Issues/Revisions dialog allows you to globally control what shows for each issue. It does not control what gets placed - if you want to see revision clouds, you have to add them, and if you want to see revision tags, you have to tag the clouds. I would imagine most firms would turn off the clouds of previous revision sequences, to avoid confusion when issuing a drawing with a new set of revisions. Some firms (mine included) like to keep the old tags visible, to provide a hint that there were previous revisions in an area. Other firms may want to turn off both clouds and tags for previous revisions.

I realize that some objects, like Doors, can be set up to be tagged on placement. This is not offered on revision clouds, perhaps because it is a sketch object, or perhaps because of the unpredictable nature of the size/scope. If you would find tagging on placement to be a useful option, you could post a wish for it in the Revit Architecture Wishlist (http://www.augi.com/wishlist/).
