Changing Grain in Solid Model Tools/Extruded Product Builder/Smart Layers

I've been building a simple slatted canopy that gets dowels machined into it to accept the cross members and the grain for those slats are horizontal. I've been searching up and down and don't see an option to set the grain in the model so I have been assigning the grain (force width) manually in the Parts Properties. There are a total of 33 slats in the two models so I'm wondering if there is a better way than going through each slat and changing the grain direction. If there isn't already, that'd be a nice feature to add to the Solid Model Tools.
