You can view a tag in both 2D and 3D files at the same time by selecting Show in Drawing or Show in Model on a tag's hotspot bubble. This split-screen navigation offers excellent contextual information surrounding a tagged object. This reduces work time by providing large amounts of navigable data within a single view.

To start:

  1. Search for a tag or document in your system.

    For help, see Search for data and objects in your system.

  2. Open the tag or document for viewing.

  3. Select a tag, and select Show in Drawing SplitScreenModeButton or Show in Model SplitScreenModeButton on the hotspot bubble.

    If the tag is found in more than one file, select a file from the Pick the document to display for [tag name] dialog.
