Tags are a vital part of working with Revit as they can show parameter data on section and plan drawings including position, offsets, reference notes and material properties.
Material tags are useful to provide a textual note to provide addition clarity to hatching conventions when reading sectional and plan drawings. Occasionally however, the tags show values as question marks despite the manufacturer information and reference being entered in the Material definition as per the image above.
