How to show in plan the tag of a door that is part of a Curtain Wall Main Panel?

Attached are the door's details; I have added the tag on the plan manually.

Is there a way to have the tag show automatically?

You can use a Label.

In the Floor Plan, activate the Label tool, hover your cursor over the Door Panel in the Curtain Wall, and you may have to use the TAB key to select the Door to be labelled, not the whole Curtain Wall, then click to place the Label. The TAB key will cycle through all elements and sub-elements found at your cursor location. In your case, it will probably be either the whole Curtain Wall, or the panel which is cut by the Floor Plan Cut Plane.

You can create a custom Label that looks exactly like a Door Marker.

Please add the dimension marker tool to curtain wall doors.
