Is there a way to restore a missing (deleted) tag element to an existing set of Tags without replacing the whole Tagset?
Or, is there a program that would let me select the associated elements of Tagset 1 (old) and 2 (new) and have the Tag values copied to the new Tags?
I've done the same thing in AutoCrud but had to write it myself.
The tags in our drawing are associated with an element (line) and if you delete the (line), then all the tags are deleted with it. An obvious problem and visible to the drafter. But if a single tagis deleted, the tagset still exists but is short the one tag. Since tags are invisible unless filled wiht text, there doesn't seem to be any way to restore the tagset to wholeness once you discover one is missing.
Since the drawing file must surely contain the complete description of the tagset, and displays them in the Attach/Verify Tags icon menu, and since Microstation has a remove duplicate element feature that must have some comparative element functions, why isn't there a similar feature for tags?
Some kind of similar MDL or VBA macro would be nice to have that could verify the integrity of the tagset, and make restorations.
see askinga article on how to lock tags and prevent accidental deletion...
personally I like tags to be visible at all times but on a non print level...
