Tag Subcategory

I have a bunch of different Generic Model families, but I want one in particular to use a different tag than the rest. I tried creating a subcategory to differentiate them but I can't select it when setting the default tags. Is there a way to go about doing this?

I don't understand what you mean. Are you talking about an Object Style Subcategory under Wall Tags?

The tags are both just Generic Tags (maybe they shouldn't be?), and I wanted to attach one of those to a specific Generic Model Element and the other tag to the rest of the Generic Model Elements. Since they're both in the Generic Model category there wasn't any way to differentiate them. I thought creating a subcategory in Object Styles might help, but it wasn't selectable when choosing the default tags.

Why don't you just create different Tag Families, or Types within Tag Families?

That's what I did, sorry if that wasn't clear, I have two different Generic Tags (separate families). The issue is trying to assign more than one of them as a default because the elements I want to assign them to are in the same category.

Sorry, but I'm still not getting it.  How are the two Generic Tags different from each other?  Are they reporting different parameters? Are they different-looking?

They are formatted differently and report a different parameter. One of them is used for our doors (we only made them as Generic Models because they don't behave like Revit's doors) which reports the door tag, and the other reports the part number. Now that I think about it, would there be any issues with creating a Generic Model and setting it to the door category? We just didn't want it to require a wall like doors typically do.

No issues with recategorizing them. Doing so would also make other parameters available to them.

Awesome, thank you so much for the help.
