View Schedules - add visual style parameter

....please.

So we can use it as a QA tool to confirm the sheets about to be sent to the printer have the correct setting. i.e. no one has switched it to wireframe & forgetten to switch it back.

This is a good idea. But.

 

On Revit 2013 jobs consider using View Templates. As of Revit 2013, the settings in your view templates automatically apply and LOCK out changes to the views in which it is applied to.

 

This has solved the problem you lament.

 

Also: Create seperate views.

Working Views (for drawing your conduits, pipes, placing light fixtures, etc)

Sheet Views (for annotation only, these views will have View Templates assigned to them, locking them from Visibility Graphics changes).

 

However. This doesn't stop some knuklehead from modifying the view template (or removing the view template from the view).

 

Which is why you need lots of training, and skull bashing, to force users to use Working Views! Who cares if your working view is thrown into wire frame? Etc.

 

Just a thought.
