If I create a beam system and elect to automatically have REVIT find the boundaries it adds this nice tag that I would like to place in other areas of my project where I have different beam systems.  Manually creating the beam system doesn't place the tag and I can't copy it from one place to the other as it says it can't find the Beam System to tag, therefore the tag was not created.  Please see attachment for clarification.

Thanks.

You need to use your tab key to ensure you select the beam system when you are tagging by category.  If its placing it using the auto option then the tag is loaded into the project.

When I tag by category I can't for the life of me get it to tab to the beam system, only individual beams.  Your post gave me the idea to try to "Tag All" but when I do I don't see that Beam System tag as even being loaded.  See attachment.

Thanks.
