EZ 3D Room Tag

Rooms, slabs and ceilings can be taken from different models. The output tags are placed in the current project.

Room model

Choose the host or a loaded link containing rooms. Existing tags are associated with this source and room number; inspect both before updating or deleting tags.

Slab model

Choose the model whose overhead slabs define the tag height. It can differ from the room source, such as a structural link above architectural rooms.

Ceiling model

Used by Above ceiling. Choose the model containing the ceilings; where no ceiling is found, that mode falls back to the slab.

Phase and Levels · All / None

Select the room phase and check eligible levels. All checks the displayed levels; None clears them. Level counts and the scope count help verify that the intended rooms are included; no matching rooms prevents placement.

All length fields use project units. The initial below-slab and above-ceiling offsets are 0.5 ft, converted for display.

Just below the slab · Offset below slab

Places the tag below the detected overhead slab by the entered length. This offset also applies when Above ceiling falls back to a slab. Use a parseable project length, including explicit units where useful.

Just above the ceiling · Offset above ceiling

Places the tag above a detected ceiling by this offset. If the room has no ceiling, uses Below slab behavior. This field is enabled only for this mode.

Mid-height of the room

Uses the room’s vertical extent instead of either offset. The offset inputs are disabled in this mode. Use it when labels should sit within the occupied room volume.

No slab above: use the room’s upper limit

Allows a tag based on room height when no overhead slab is detected. These fallback tags are reported for review. If disabled, rooms without the required overhead geometry are skipped.

Rotation · Fixed angle / Longest wall / Extra rotation

Fixed applies the entered angle in degrees to all tags. Align follows each room’s longest boundary edge; the field then becomes Extra rotation, added to that direction. Use 0° extra rotation for direct alignment.

Room parameters · Filter and checkboxes

Filter by parameter name, then check the values to copy. Name and number are always written. Additional values become text parameters named Room <parameter name> on the model tags; check a finished tag’s Properties to confirm them.

Put tags on workset · Existing workset

Available in workshared hosts. Check it and choose a current user workset for the tags. Unchecked uses the active workset. Worksets belong to the host, even when rooms come from links. If a remembered workset is unavailable, choose a valid one before placement.

Add workset / New name / Add / Cancel

Add workset opens the name editor. Enter a non-empty, valid, unique Revit workset name. Add accepts it as a pending choice; the workset is created only when Place tags runs. Cancel closes the editor without accepting the new name. An existing name must be selected from the list instead.

Choose deliberately between preserving identities and recreating elements. A room source helps keep tags from different models separate.

Update in place

Moves and rotates existing tags and updates their text while keeping their Revit element IDs. Extra duplicate tags for a matched room are removed. Prefer this for models linked to Navisworks issues.

Skip rooms that already have a tag

Leaves matched existing tags as they are and only adds missing ones. Existing text and positions are not refreshed.

Delete and place again

Deletes matched tags and places new family instances. New native element IDs can affect downstream references; use it when a deliberate full recreation is needed.

Delete tags whose room number no longer exists

Deletes orphan tags associated with the chosen room source. A room still present anywhere in that source is protected even if it is outside the selected phase/level scope. Leave unchecked if you want to review leftovers first.

Place tags

Validates scope, lengths and rotation, then shows the room count, update mode and copied-parameter count for confirmation. The result reports placement, updates, replacements, duplicates and rooms needing attention.

Cancel

Closes before placement without creating model tags.

Result · Select items that need a look

Selects reported host tags and linked rooms where possible. Use Revit Selection Box (BX) in 3D to inspect fallback heights or missing overhead geometry. Close dismisses the result.
