DFrame module 13 · Annotate
Tags
for Revit.
Automatically tag visible Revit elements and align tag heads with controlled spacing for clearer, consistent documentation.
Included in the complete DFrame toolsetProblem and approach
Why Tags exists.
Tags automates two common documentation tasks: placing tags on visible elements and arranging them consistently. Select the relevant views and apply controlled spacing rules instead of correcting every annotation manually.
The module helps teams maintain a readable drawing style across repeated views while still allowing the result to be reviewed and adjusted where needed.
Input to result
Tags, step by step.
Three decisions that move the task from source information to a result ready for review.
- 1.
Select views and taggable element categories
- 2.
Choose tag types and alignment settings
- 3.
Preview and create the coordinated annotations
Controls
What the module lets you inspect.
More consistent Revit annotations with significantly less manual tag placement and alignment work.
Tag visible elements automatically
Place the selected tag type on visible elements in target views while respecting the categories chosen for documentation.
Align tag heads with controlled spacing
Arrange tag heads using a defined spacing rule to reduce overlapping leaders and repetitive manual alignment.
Create more consistent annotations across views
Repeat the same placement approach across comparable plans or sections so drawing output follows a recognisable annotation standard.
Best suited for
Who benefits most.
- Documentation teams with repeated views
- Engineers producing annotated plans
- BIM managers standardising drawing output
