Simple Revit Command to change the active workset on a Shared Model by setting the workset of a selected element. Cannot get simpler than that.
Copy the files from the for Revit version that are under the dist folderto the corresponding Revit addins folder, to the corresponding folder on your machine. For more info on these folders, see this useful gist.
Simply click on the Command under Addins > External Tools tab in Revit. If an element was already selected, it will set its workset as active, otherwise it will prompt you to select a valid element.
If multiple elements are selected at the same time, it use the first element that has a valid workset.
Revit allows to set a custom shortcut to all commands so I would recommend to set a shortcut like WS to the command. Makes your life easier.
