View Template Manager (Revit pyRevit Tool)

Set the same parameter on many view templates at once, through a quick run of native Revit dialogs.

View templates drift apart as a project grows, and bringing one setting back in line normally means editing each template by hand. This pyRevit tool runs a short sequence of dialogs: select your templates, pick the parameter, set the value, confirm, and it applies the change to all of them in one undoable transaction.

What's inside

• One pyRevit button: View Template Manager
• A multi-select list of every view template in the project
• An editable-parameter picker that marks shared parameters and shows the parameter group
• A current-values summary so you see what you are about to change
• Smart value input that adapts to the parameter: Yes/No choices, Detail Level (Coarse, Medium, Fine), a list of common drawing scales, element pickers for Phase, View Template, and Filter, or a text box with unit hints
• A confirmation summary before the change is written

Who this is for

• BIM professionals who want the quickest path to a consistent setting across many templates
• BIM managers tidying view templates on a project
• Revit users transitioning into BIM who want a guided batch edit with built-in value pickers

Requirements

• Autodesk Revit 2021 or newer
• pyRevit installed (free, from pyrevitlabs.io)
• Applies changes in a single, undoable Revit transaction
• Edits whichever parameters are editable on your view templates; read-only parameters are never offered and no special shared parameters are required

What you'll get faster

The view-template fix that usually means opening template after template. Select them, pick the parameter, confirm, and apply the change to every one at once.
