Coloured tabs for different opened models

[gavin_cussons]

Hi all,

Recently I was working on a project with multiple project models open. We struggled to determine which tabs belonged to what model. We had an idea of colour coding the tabs so that 1 model file will be red, another model be blue, etc.

I hope this makes sense

I agree this would be nice to have packaged with Revit but there is a free add-in that you can use to do this! pyRevit is one of the most useful extensions for quality of life things like this and it works with a lot of Revit versions. It can color family tabs too and set how the tabs are colored. Personally, I like my projects to have a single colored line and my families to have a colored border. Hope this helps! 

Here is where you can download it from Github

This is really important for us too. Pyrevit is not stable at all when you have multiple plugins installed. Autodesk should have this color option by default, it's so simple why can't they add this ?
