Hello,
I am trying to tag equipment that has been nested into casework family. When I load the family into the project, the tag appears to be only for millwork. Is there are any ways to tag equipment built within the family?
Thank you very much!

Revit recognizes that some elements are 1 item - like a window. You don't need, or want to see, anything else that makes up the window. But sometimes you have elements that have seperate parts like you have. Revis default is a family is one element and only that information is available.
If you want a sub-family to be shared to the project, then you have to set that switch. Edit the family and under the properties tab / family categories and parameters (yellow folder) / family parameters / set the shared switch.

Thank you very much!
I have made the casework family with nested elements shared and load back into the project. I am still unable to tag the equipment. Please see attached.
If you know any ways of how I can work it out, that would be GREATLY apprecisted!

Works just fine. Remember - these items are specialty equipment - not casework!

^^^ READ ^^^^ They are specialty equipment! You have to use the correct tag.
