Insulation on Wrong Worksets

Hi,

The pipeworks were drawn on the wrong Workset. I changed the Workset, but Insulation Elements are still on the same Workset. Does anyone have any workaround for this?

I tried a Dynamo solution but doesn't work

What happens if you remove the insulation and add it back while the correct workset is active?

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

Tab select the entire run of affected piping, Cut to clipboard, Paste to correct Workset.  Piping and insulation will be on the same Workset now.

That Works but

1. How do I filter out Affected Pipeworks/Ductworks in the first place?

2. I'll lose all the Insulation related Tags.

Retaining annotation makes it a bit tricky.   You can select all the piping and annotation and cut/paste together.  

 

Or, how about select all the piping and create a group?  Most objects in the group change to the active Workset and your annotation should remain in tact. 

 

Do you need to filter?  Not sure if you can do an AND filtering scheme to grab insulation by Workset.

Did you fix this? This has been annoying me from day one, You would assume (BUT NEVER SHOULD) that once you put the insulation on it would automatically take the property of the pipe & or duct but it does not. You have to make sure whatever you put the insulation on that you are in the correct workset.

Info in my previous posts have worked for me.

If somehow your pipe insulation ends on different Workset then pipe itself, you can just :

1. Group affected pipes (only pipes)
2. Change Workset of the group
3. Ungroup

This works, thanks for the information.
