I was using a plugin that can save tile views in their current state.
Is this possible to accomplish using pyRevit?
Hi,
If it was a feature in another 3rd party plugin for Revit, then yes, it should be possible to accomplish using pyRevit. What was the plugin called?
- Is the plugin useful?
- Is it expensive?
- How many hours are you expecting to spend to reproduce the functionalities of a plugin that does the job?
- How much are you paid by the hour?
- Is it worth it, except for the sake of learning something new, or greatly improve functionalities ?
Sorry, but I tend to argue a bit about the cost vs value. This seems very cheap IMHO.
Hi jean
- It is quite helpful as I have to work on various zones of the building. While doing so, I will open a few sections, plan views, and 3D views. It would be useful if I could save these views and load them later when I need to work on them again. Currently, I open each view one by one, which takes 5-10 minutes to set up the views.
- It’s $69, and I don’t want to pay that because I know I can create something similar.
- While I have developed the basic function to save and load views, I am not sure on how to save the layouts position.
- I am not paid by the hour.
- Yes, it is worthwhile, as I mentioned in the first point.
Theres’s some discussion on it here:
Re: Tile UIViews API? - Autodesk Community
I believe this is the framework they are referencing, but I’m not 100% (was just a quick search).

You can look at what pyrevit already does with the tab colorizer to get an idea of how to work with it.
