Hi. I have been searching for a solution to this problem for some time, but without any effects. What I am trying to do is to create color overrides for revision clouds (and preferably tags) based on the “Issued to” parameter. This way I want to create different colors for revisions refering to con…

My test script was run with OwnerView so I’m not sure what the issue is. [image]

I assume it’s “not working” because you got all your clouds in the entire project and set the overrides for only one view. Since overrides are view specific the element only changes if it exists in the specified view. If you want to set the overrides for every cloud in every view you have to tell i…

It didn’t work even in the active view. Anyway I will try using the tools both of you mentioned and see if I can get it to do what I need. I’ll get back here when I get some results. Thanks!

Ok, I think it is over my head. Tried using Element.OwnerView - it gives me a list of views where the revision cloud are which is awesome. I plugged it in, but still no results. The revision clouds stay untouched. [revisions] I even tried using OverrideColorInView just for the active view, as it s…

Ah, you’re filtering the parameter value not the element. You want the All Elements of Category output going into the List.FilterByBoolMask input.

I tried this: [2017-09-18_revisions]

and this: [2017-09-18_revisions_2]

but nothing happened to the revision clouds. Only when I tried this, the cloud changed color: [2017-09-18_revisions_3] As you mentioned it modifies them only in the active view which is not what I am ultimately trying to achieve. I really hope my questions aren’t as dumb as I think they are …

What package is your View Set Element Overrides from? I don’t have one like it. Try using this Python code instead. import clr clr.AddReference('ProtoGeometry') from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry import * clr.AddReference('DSCoreNodes') from DSCore import * clr.AddReference("RevitNodes") import R…

It’s Hot Gear. I tried the script you provided and it works like a charm. Thanks! [2017-09-18_revisions_4] I couldn’t get it to work with Element.OwnerView tho, so I’am currently restricted to only one type of view, which is sufficient at this time.

sorry, my bad. I plugged the All Elements of Category directly to the Element.OwnerView and as I can see, I should have done it with the filtered by boolean version. Now it’s really working like a charm.
