## Tag Properties

### Target Object

Parameter ID: `TARGETEXPRESSIONTAG_LINK`

Drag the target object, to which the other object's Z axis should be aligned, from the **Object Manager** into this text field.

### Up Vector

Parameter ID: `TARGETEXPRESSIONTAG_UP_LINK`

As best as possible, define the object to which the other object's Y axis should be aligned. **Target Object** will have priority.

### Pitch

Parameter ID: `TARGETEXPRESSIONTAG_PITCH`

If this option is active, the Z axis of the object to be aligned will always point in the direction of the target object. If this option is not active, the pitch rotation of the object to be aligned will remain unchanged.
