Create Tagged Value Type from Predefined Types

When you are working with Tagged Values, you might want to use structured Tagged Values; that is, Tagged Values that capture and present more complex information in a specific format. The base types for such Tagged Values (the type you call in when you create a tag in the Tagged Values window) can be easily created specifically for your model, as you can base the customized structured Tagged Value types on a range of predefined Tagged Value types and filters.
