 The file tagging mechanism allows you to define specific subsets of your C3D files, to facilitate processing these as a group. Tags can be made Active in the same fashion that individual files can be made active. Tags are a general way to set files as active since filenames are usually unique across workspaces because they are associated with the [[#Filenames|full pathname]]. A tag can be any string of characters, for example "PRE" or "POST", "Subject1" or "Subject2", "Walk" or "Run", etc. The file tagging mechanism allows you to define specific subsets of your C3D files, to facilitate processing these as a group.

 Setting a Tag as the Active File ensures that all files associated with that tag will be processed. Tags can be used in a pipeline using the [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:File_Commands:Select_Active_File|Select_Active_File]] command. And tags can be used in a [[Visual3D:Tutorials:Reports:Creating_a_Report|Report Template]] to display only data associated with that tag. Setting a Tag as the Active File ensures that all files associated with that tag will be processed.

 Using the workspace tab to create tags is a great way to create tags manually when you are interactively working with a file. Using the workspace tab to create tags is a great way to create tags manually when you are interactively working with a file.
-|**1.** In the Workspace tab, click "Add New File Tag"  |  [[File:AddNewFileTag.png|{{/images/thumb/5/56/AddNewFileTag.png/350px-AddNewFileTag.png?350x161}}]]|+|**1.** In the Workspace tab, click "Add New File Tag"  |  {{:AddNewFileTag.png}}|
  
-|**2.** In the popup dialog, enter the new file tag name\\ \\ **3.** Click "Continue"  |  [[File:EnterNewFileTagName.png|{{/images/thumb/3/32/EnterNewFileTagName.png/350px-EnterNewFileTagName.png?350x124}}]]  |+|**2.** In the popup dialog, enter the new file tag name\\ \\ **3.** Click "Continue"  |  {{:EnterNewFileTagName.png}}  |

-===== File -> Add/Modify File Tags =====+==== File -> Add/Modify File Tags ====
  
 The benefit of going to File -> Add/Modify File Tags is that the dialog will allow you to select multiple files at once by clicking and dragging - instead of individually checking the check boxes as you do in the Workspace tab. The benefit of going to File -> Add/Modify File Tags is that the dialog will allow you to select multiple files at once by clicking and dragging - instead of individually checking the check boxes as you do in the Workspace tab.

-===== Pipeline =====+==== Pipeline ====
  
 You can [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:File_Commands:Assign_Tags_To_File|assign tags to files]] using the pipeline, as well as [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:File_Commands:Combine_Tags|combine]] and [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:File_Commands:Remove_Tags|remove]] tags. You can [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:File_Commands:Assign_Tags_To_File|assign tags to files]] using the pipeline, as well as [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:File_Commands:Combine_Tags|combine]] and [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:File_Commands:Remove_Tags|remove]] tags.
 Using the Pipeline to create tags will be the most useful when automating your processing. Using the Pipeline to create tags will be the most useful when automating your processing.
