How to use assign colour to tag based on parameter value

I have generic models that have a Shared Parameter ADBGroup that either equals 1, 2 or 3 (the value is text). For visual representation the generic model changes colour to either Red, Blue or Green based on this parameter using filters in the view template. I have a generic model tag that annotates the model with ADBCode (Shared parameter) and I want this to be coloured coded based on its ADBGroup value. At the moment I am having to manually switch between the tag types that are set up in the tag family with visibility parameters.

 

I attempted to do this via filters on the view template, but couldn't figure out how to filter colour, line thickness etc. on annotation tags - Firstly is this possible?

 

I have also attempted when in the tag family to assign formulas, but I have been unsuccessful.

I need my visibility paramters to equal yes when Shared parameter ADBGroup equals a certain value. For example, if ADBGroup (Shared Parameter) = 1, then Group 1 (visibility parameter) = 1 [or yes]

ADBGroup (Shared Parameter) = 2, then Group 2 (visibility parameter) = 1 [or yes]

ADBGroup (Shared Parameter) = 3, then Group 3 (visibility parameter) = 1 [or yes]

Is this at all possible, or is there better way to achieve my goal.

You can do that for labels, but not linework.  So the question is that can you create the family including any graphic symbols solely from labels (special characters work too)?
