Add option to "Toggle All Grids Bubbles" to toggle bubbles at the sides of the view (top|bottom, left|right)

[eirannejad]

From pyRevit fan:

"toggle all grids bubbles in current view" is it possible to choose either the top bubbles on the sheet or bottom bubbles on the sheet to turn a whole set of those on or off? Or is the only option is to turn all of the grids on or off regardless of if they're on top or bottom, left or right?

No directionality implemented in the code
https://github.com/pyrevitlabs/pyRevit/blob/master/extensions/pyRevitTools.extension/pyRevit.tab/Drawing%20Set.panel/views.stack/Views.pulldown/Toggle%20All%20Grid%20Bubbles%20in%20Current%20View.pushbutton/script.py

All on or off.
Closest and easiest thing would be to add option for end0 or end1, but that would all depend on what was the first and second drawing point.

not fully automated , but flipping grids much easier using multi-selections.

doc = revit.doc
active_view = doc.ActiveView

grids = revit.get_selection()

if not grids:
    forms.alert('No Grids selected!', exitscript=True)
end_0 = []
end_1 = []

with revit.Transaction('Flip Grids'):
    for grid in grids:
        # Define Ends
        end_0 = grid.IsBubbleVisibleInView(DB.DatumEnds.End0, active_view)
        end_1 = grid.IsBubbleVisibleInView(DB.DatumEnds.End1, active_view)

        if end_0:
            grid.HideBubbleInView(DB.DatumEnds.End0, active_view)
        else:
            grid.ShowBubbleInView(DB.DatumEnds.End0, active_view)

        if end_1:
            grid.HideBubbleInView(DB.DatumEnds.End1, active_view)
        else:
            grid.ShowBubbleInView(DB.DatumEnds.End1, active_view)

Hi guys,

I found a good workaround with the curve endpoints, they match the DatumEnds (0|1)
Have to deal with the view orientation now...

I plan to enhance the "Toggle All Grids Bubbles" feature by including an option to control bubble visibility at the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the view. My experience with UI design and toggle functionalities makes me well-suited for this task. This improvement will give users greater customization and improve overall usability
