Scene and Styles

Is there a plugin or someway to change Styles like there is with scenes. One click from one Style to another style.

I like the engineering style for display during design viewing. However, in the last couple of weeks I have discovered the advantage of drawing with the profile lines turned on and showing end points style. To me it has increased my accuracy and deceased my drawing time.
I tried to make to scene tabs with one being just the engineering style so I could view the drawing and another scene tab with profiles and end points on. However, scenes will not remember these setting.
So I thought maybe there was a pluging for this, like a toggle, from one style to another and back, that I didn't know about or some work around in Sketchup that I had missed.
Thanks for you reply. Guess there is neither.

Hi Ken,
Go to your Preferences > General tab and check that "Warn..." box.
From now on, any time you make some style change and add or update a scene, an annoying popup will appear asking you whether you want to update your style in use or add as a new style or do nothing. In order to have different styles (including profiles and endpoints) under your different scenes, you will want to "add" it as a new style.Experiment until you feel comfortable with this (and once in a while purge your styles, too, not to "collect" too many unused ones in your model).

And you also got the Scenes window that let you change the properties of multiple scenes in one go.

Also watch Chris Fullmer at the first quarter of this video. He is presenting how to use these different styles during his workflow with extensive models.
