Finding Redline Tags
During a review session you may create tens, or hundreds of tags which are communicated and referred
to amongst the review team. It may therefore be necessary to locate tags by ID, status or author.
As redline tags utilize the Comments dialog, this allows you to use the Find Comments dialog to search
for tags with specific text or ID, of a particular status, or by author or date created. See “ Finding
Comments ” for more information on this search method.
NavisWorks also has additional review features specifically for finding tags.
Quick finding of redline tags:
1. On the Review menu, click Tags > Find Tag By ID if you know the ID of the tag you wish to find.
