Adding Redline Tags

Adding Redline Tags

Redline Tags combine the features of redlining, viewpoints and comments into a single, easy to use review tool. This allows you to tag anything you want to identify in the model scene. A viewpoint will be created and you can add a comment and status to the tag. For example, during a review session, you may observe an item in the scene that is incorrectly sized or positioned. You can then tag this item, identifying the problem. This tag information can be saved into a JetStream review file (*.nwf) and distibuted to the design team. The design team may then search the file, say for any tags of status 'new'. Once any necessary modifications are made to the drawing files, these can be reloaded into the *.nwf file and the tag status changed accordingly. You can review this latest version of the review file, ensure all tags have been resolved and finally 'approve' them.

Adding a redline tag to the current viewpoint

1. Ensure the Redline Tools control bar is displayed as outlined in the previous section.

2. Choose the Tag redline tool.

3. Click in the navigation window where you wish the tag to be attached to.

4. Click again in the navigation window where you wish the tag ID to be positioned. Both points will be joined by a leader line.

   If the current viewpoint is not already saved, then it will be saved automatically and named 'Tag View X', where X is the tag ID.

   The Add Comment dialog will be displayed.

   

5. Enter the text to be associated with the tag and set the tag status from the drop-down list.

6. Click OK to save the tag, or Cancel to return to JetStream without saving it.
