Aligning Room tag

[Charlotte Metz]

Hi,

Anybody knows how to align already placed Room Tags without moving every tag individually.
Is there a way to use align Tool?

Charlotte,

This is a manual process. But they should snap to the embedded reference planes within the room tag. The only thing you can really do to speed up the process, is make sure that the rooms are all placed along the same planes. Under the Visibility Graphics controls for modeled objects, expand rooms to see their subcategories, and turn on the Reference. This is where the Room Tag should snap to, as long as you don't have leaders turned on.

Sorry,

Place all of your rooms without tags (or delete the already placed tags)... place one tag in a room and copy it horizontally or vertically into adjacent rooms to "align" them. This assumes all of the tags are the same type and family.

Thanks for the tips!

Charlotte,

I forgot to mention that you can copy to clipboard and paste aligned, into your different views. So if you go through the task of setting one view up correctly, you can then copy/paste it to another view or to multiple views via paste to selected views.

Cheers,

Thanks Jeff,
That was pretty much what I ended up doing!
