Display elevation tags in elevation

pcrossington — Thu, 14 May 2026 22:42:39 GMT

I can't figure out how to display window tags on exterior elevation. I've always just shown them in plan, but I have a need for them to be on the elevations as well.

Thanks in advance.

You can use an associative label, and then select the Door Window label that is loaded into your version of Archicad you are running.

Hi @pcrossington

You can use the Property Label Type or Opening Label and change the frame shape, text, etc. to match whatever you need and save it as a favorite.

If you want to label all the windows at once in the elevation view:

Select the Window tool.
Ctrl (Command)+A to select them all.
Menu Document> Annotation> Label Selected Elements.
