Is it possible to change the visibility setting to "Show" of a (or several) selected worksets in selected views.

Total Goal - I am trying to turn on a workset in all of our Mechanical Views of a shared model. (Without going into the visibility Graphics of each view)

Thanks all,
Andre

Create a view template with the v/g settings that you want and apply it to the appropriate views.

This was considered but the views were nto intended to have all the same worksets displayed.

If all you want to do is turn on certain worksets on some of the Mechanical sheets I would first create a view template for each of the workset combinations you would like to show on different views under the view template settings in the view tab. Then I would adjust the workset settings within the worksets dialog box as necessary and make sure to only have the worksets checked in the view templates settings main dialog box so only those settings are applied.

One more thing I forgot to point out is that the above will only apply to worksets within your shared revit model. If you need to control the worksets from linked files, it would be a similar process except that you would have to adjust the settings of the linked files under 'RVT Links'.

Hope this helps!

I appreciate your help.
Unfortunately this will not work as it still involves going into each view and changing Visibility Graphics.

Further information.
We had to move our Mech Equip to a new workset.(Client Request)
Being that this is a shared model (and client wants to control views by workset), we have to set this workset to not be shown in views. we then have to go to each view and turn them on.
