Feature request: overall TikZling styles about tikzlings

[joulev]

If I understand the code correctly, each animal has its own path. Unless the code is refactored so that all tikzlings share the same pgfkeys path (I believe this is the better way to handle the keys), I don't think that is possible.

For modifying every marmot, you could use

\documentclass{standalone}

\usepackage{tikzlings}
\tikzset{/marmot/teeth=white,/marmot/whiskers=gray}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}
\bear
\end{tikzpicture}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\penguin
\end{tikzpicture}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\marmot
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

To make all TikZlings 3D, one can modify this nice answer https://topanswers.xyz/tex?q=1569#a1820

\documentclass{standalone}

\usepackage{tikzlings}
\tikzset{tikzling 3D/.code={\tikzset{/#1/3D}}}
\tikzset{tikzling 3D/.list={anteater,bear,bee,cat,chicken,coati,  hippo,koala,marmot,mouse,moles,owl,panda,penguin,pig,rhino,sheep,  sloth,snowman,squirrel}}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}
\bear
\end{tikzpicture}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\penguin
\end{tikzpicture}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\marmot
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

P.S. If there is anyone with the necessary safety equipment to handle explosives, it might be possible to adapt

tikzlings/tikzlings-addons.sty

Lines 35 to 50 in 4aa9e46

	\cs_new_eq:NN \tikzling@iteratesearch \tikzlings_iteratesearch:N
	\ExplSyntaxOff

to automatically generate this list from \tikzling@list

Thanks for the suggestions! I was thinking more of something like

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikzlings}
\begin{document}
\tikzset{explicit every marmot/.style={/marmot/whiskers,/marmot/teeth}}
\tikz{\marmot[explicit every marmot]}

\tikz{\marmot}

\tikzset{every marmot set style/.code={\tikzset{/marmot/#1}},
every marmot/.code={\tikzset{every marmot set style/.list={#1}}}}
\tikzset{every marmot={whiskers,teeth}}

\tikz{\marmot}
\end{document}

but I am also not sure.
