- Tip: the Replace command will import tag codes much faster than the Import command. Use the Import command only when appending a relatively small number of tag codes (less than 25k) to a tag action.
- Tip: the Delete All and Replace commands will generate a lot of empty space in the P3 database. We recommend running the Compact and Repair utility after running any of these commands to optimize the database.

Undo Dot-
Out
If the tag code field in the current detail record was dotted-out and the
record has not yet been saved, this command will replace the dot-out with
original tag code.
Next Tag
Code in
Buffer
If the tag code buffer
is not empty, this command will automatically select
the first buffered tag code and enter it into the tag code field of a new detail
record.
Clear Tag
Buffer
This command will clear any tag codes currently in the tag code buffer.
Align
Digitizer
Map
This command will display a dialog window to align any digitizer map
currently defined in the active profile.
When this dialog is displayed, the user first presses the lower left-hand
corner of the selected digitizer map
configured for a tablet device. An XY
coordinate pair will appear in the Lower Left frame. Next, the user presses
the upper-right hand corner of the digitizer map and the XY coordinates will
display in the Upper Right frame. To repeat the alignment for a specific
frame, select the frame's option button and press the corresponding corner
again. Once both coordinate pairs are complete, press OK to save this
alignment.
In the unlikely case there is more than one digitizer map configured for the
active profile, use the Map drop-down to select another digitizer map to
align.
Assign
VRT
This command displays a dialog window to assign specific release dates and
times to every distinct VRT code defined in the current Tag Session.
