Tag Sets Dialog
Used to create, edit, and remove tag set definitions. Before you can attach a tag to an element in the design file, you must first use this settings box to define the tag and the set of which it is a member.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| File menu > Export > Append to Tag Library… | Opens the Export Tag Library dialog, which lets you append the selected tag set definition to a tag set library. An alert box is displayed if you attempt to append a tag set definition with the same name as one that already exists in the chosen library. |
| File menu > Export > Create Tag Library… | Opens Export Tag Library dialog, which lets you create a tag set library that includes the selected tag set definition. |
| File menu > Export > To Database… | Opens the Tag to Database dialog which is used to export tag data from the design file into an existing database table. |
| File menu > Import > From Tag Library… | Opens the Open Tag Library dialog, which lets you import a tag set definition from a tag set library into the design file. An alert box is displayed if you attempt to import a tag set definition with the same name as one that already exists in the design file. Note: Tag set libraries are resource files that contain a resource class designed to hold tag set definitions. The resource class is "TgLb" and its type is defined in the published header file "tagdata.h." Tag set libraries have a default file extension of ".tlb." All of the tag set definitions in a library have the same resource ID (currently 1). The resource's alias is the tag set name and is used to distinguish between tag sets in a tag set library. Because tag set definitions stored in the design file are in Type 66 elements, the import and export options in the Tag Sets dialog convert tag set definitions between Type 66 format and the new external resource format.
