Viewing asset tags is easy and is the first step before you can link objects to vault documents.
To view the current tag information for a document:
The following table contains descriptions of each column.
Column | Description |
---|---|
Object Nr. |
The text or attribute value found in current document by the last tag extraction. The value might have a prefix or postfix applied as configured by a system administrator. Consult a system administrator for the names of blocks and attributes or text patterns that are configured for asset tag extraction. |
Type |
The tag type assigned to the asset. |
Status |
The status of the asset tag in relation to a matching vault object. The possible values are described in the following table. |
Inserted |
Indicates an asset tag that was found in the current document. |
Linked |
Indicates that the current document is linked to the matching vault object. |
Object |
The name of a matching vault object. These names are the same as the objects listed on the Objects property page. |
The following table contains descriptions of the possible Status column values.
Value | Description |
---|---|
No matching object found |
An asset tag exists for which no matching object could be found. To create and link a matching object, see Creating objects from asset tags. |
Not linked |
An asset tag with a matching object was found but the document has not yet been linked. To link the matching object, see Linking and unlinking documents and objects. |
Mismatch found |
An asset tag with a matching object was found but the vault object is not linked to the document and the tag type assigned to the vault object does not match the asset tag type. NEW To ignore the tag type comparison, disable Compare tag types. To correct the vault object type, see Viewing and editing object properties. |
Ok |
The asset tag and vault object correctly match and the document is linked. |
Mismatch referenced |
The vault object is linked to the document, but the tag type assigned to the vault object does not match the asset tag type. NEW To ignore the tag type comparison, disable Compare tag types. To correct the vault object type, see Viewing and editing object properties. |
Only in vault |
An asset tag with a matching object was found but the vault object is not linked to the document and the tag type assigned to the vault object does not match the asset tag type. To correct the vault object type, see Viewing and editing object properties. |
Note By default, a document's tag list is updated whenever the document is saved in AutoCAD or the Text Tags or Drawing Tags dialog is shown. To view updated Status information, such as after editing object properties, click Refresh.
Tip To filter the list of tags on a specific value, select the value from the column heading's list.
