VG Brush
Sample a category's look with the eyedropper, then paint it onto other categories. It writes the category rows of Visibility/Graphics in the view, or in its view template. Follow the notes, or just use the window.

What it does
- Eyedropper reads one category's Visibility/Graphics overrides into the board. Paint writes the switched-on properties to every category you click, one undo step per click, until Esc.
- It writes the category row of Visibility/Graphics, so every element of that category changes. It never writes Override Graphics in View › By Element.
- When the view template controls V/G, the template is written, and every view using it changes. The footer always shows where it writes.
- Blue means Paint writes that property. Grey means the target keeps its own value. An empty board paints nothing until you press Reset board; then Paint clears category overrides.
- Subcategory uses the part you clicked (e.g. a door's Plan Swing) when Revit can identify it; otherwise the parent category.
