Conditions

Condition is a validity subproperty used to specify criteria to be met in order for a parent definition’s tag to be applied to an object. It is used in conjunction with the Filter subproperty. There may be one or more conditions under the Validity property.

The Validity property of a tag definition is primarily used to filter out tags in the Edit Tags dialog that should not be applied to an object. The criteria contained in this property does not prevent applying the tag to any object.Some smart tags, however, do not operate properly if they are applied to an object that does meet the criteria in the Validity property. The Validity property can be any tag rule condition including And and Or, which allow for combining other conditions.

The validity conditions are located in the tagdictionary palette.
