Tags and Phases

Most of the annotations are view dependent in Revit. Tags are also dependent on the object they tag to. (for eg. a door tag will get hidden when the door is hidden, etc.)

Phasing acts similarly – if the object is not shown in the view because of the:

  1. phase of the object
  2. phase filter of the view
  3. phase of the view

then the tag is not shown.

Interestingly, this applies to view tags also. (elevation, sections, etc. ) but because these tags dont attach to any ‘physical’ elements, it is a bit confusing.

So,

View tags that are assigned to any future construction phase will not be visible in views that are assigned to any past phases.
