Configure Multiple Tags In One Cell

By default, only one tag value is extracted from each cell and matched to an tag name in the vault. If your cells contain multiple tag names in multiple tag values within the same cell, you can map each tag to a specific tag type.

To configure multiple tags in one cell:

1. In the TAGBLOCK section described in Configure the MicroStation Link for each cell that contains multiple equipment tags, add a TagFields setting.

   This setting is a comma-separated list of text array indexes in the cell that each contain values to be extracted.

2. For each text array index specified for TagFields, create a section using this syntax:

   [TAGFIELD_<BlockName>:<TextArrayIndex>]

   Where <BlockName> is the block/cell name and <TextArrayIndex> is the text array index.

3. In each TAGFIELD section, create a TagProperty setting that specifies the text array index.

4. Also in each each TAGFIELD section, create a TagType setting that specifies the corresponding object type to associate with text array index.

Following is an example of one complete TAGBLOCK section for multiple tags:

[TAGBLOCK_BLOCK1]
TagFields=[0],[1]

[TAGFIELD_BLOCK1:0]
TagProperty=[0]
TagType=Equipment-[0]

[TAGFIELD_BLOCK1:1]
TagProperty=[1]
TagType=Line-[1]
