QTOTag Freemium

QTOTag attaches a catalog item to one or more selected Revit elements, instance by instance. Use it for one-off tagging that does not fit the type-level mapping in QTOMappings.

Tagging at the type level is more efficient than tagging instance by instance — see Core Concepts → Type-based propagation.

Prerequisites

How to run

Select one or more elements in Revit, then on the AEC.codes ribbon tab click QTOTag.

QTOTag instance-mode dialog
QTOTag — instance mode: pick the catalog item to attach to the current selection.

UI walkthrough

  1. Selection summary — number and category of selected Revit elements.
  2. Catalog cascade filter — browse by chapter / category / item. See Search & Filter.
  3. Apply — write the tag into ES + SP for each selected element.

What happens

The selected catalog item is written to each selected element's Extensible Storage entity, and the mirror Shared Parameters are populated. The element transitions to the Element-tagged state (overrides any inherited type tag).

Beta is instance mode only. Layer mode for compound elements ships at V2.0.
