Tag a Door Panel in a Curtain Wall

I have made a door schedule that lists both doors and doors in curtain walls. In the plans and elevations I have tag with the label tool the Doors which makes use of IFC parameters to identify the doors but my problem is when I try to tag the doors in Curtain Walling it tags the curtain wall and not the door panel in the curtain wall.

Any idea how to get the tag label to pick the door?

Hi.

Like I said here

"Or better yet.... cut out the door from the curtain wall contour and place a normal door in a wall (same size as the door so it doesn't show). Doors will be easier to manage, schedule, tag, dimension and modify this way."

Would be great if door panels in curtain walls were treated like normal doors, but then they wouldn't be treated as panels... so...
The solution works great if you are not going to make a lot of changes to the curtain wall, because is kind of painful to keep changing the curtain wall contour.

Best regards.

Seems a shame to do it that way when it shows up fine in the Schedule. Oh well shall tag it manually
