Smart tags

All 54 smart tags, each with what it writes, to insert into a value field. A smart tag such as {Date_ISO} or {Element_ID} is filled in per element when the operation runs.

How to open

The tag button beside a value field.

Where to click: the tag button at the end of a value field

What's in it

The Smart tags dialog with its Tag and Description columns

Part What it does
Search Looks at the tag, its description and its group: user finds {Revit_User}, {Windows_User} and the other tags about users
Tag / Description The tag as it is written, and what it fills in
Select Inserts the tag where the cursor is in the field, or replaces the selected text. A double-click does the same

Good to know

  • You can build a value one tag at a time: Checked {Date_ISO} by {Revit_User}. If you never clicked into the field, the tag goes at the end.
  • You can also type a tag by hand: the name in curly braces, exactly as listed.
  • What each tag writes, and which fields fill them in, is in Smart tags.
