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 [[# | The file tagging mechanism allows you to define specific subsets of your C3D files, to facilitate processing these as a group.
