rebar solids in 3d view with Dynamo

Hello, I'm using Revit 2022

I need to place rabars radially in a round slab, I placed 1 rebar and copy rotated by a cetain number for a 90 angle. I have alot of these to do over 500 and more . My problem is when i go to my 3d view i need to select one at at a time so i can edit them in  "view visibility status" to make them appear solid in my 3d views. I can't possibly do this for each bar It'll take me forever. I've  seen vidoes onllibe where people use dynamo scripts that does this instantaneuously. Does anyone have a script I can try?  thank you

Simply using Revit, you can select one bar, Right Click > Select all instances visible in view and Edit the Properties Palette View Visibility Status 

or Select everything in the whole view with a Selection Window Modify Tab > Filter > Rebar and repeat the Properties Palette process 

 

There are some addins which will show all rebar with a single click of a button.
