  1. Is there a way to switch off the kerb races so that they aren't seen in plan?  I've tried putting the extrude into a class that is switched off to no avail.  When I ask it to draw the 'simple' kerb in 2D I get the full width of kerb and race.  Ideally I'd like the races to be there in 3D but at the moment I'm having to use the workaround of deleting them altogether.

     

    Thanks

  2. I am working on a project where I need to export type names to IFC.  VW 2025 seems very inconsistent in the field where these should be entered to export correctly:

     

    Symbols - entered in the 'name' field in the IFC type tab

    Hardscapes and  Landscape Areas - returns the style name

    Fences - returns the style name

     

    For the following object I haven't been able to find where to enter the type name:

    Walls

    Stairs

    Doors (may be by style name?)

     

    Is anyone able to help with these last 3?

     

    Thanks

  3. Hi Katerina,

     

    I'm using v2025.  The dark green shape below is a hedgerow and the light green I converted to a polyline, so they should have exactly the same area, but for some reason the hedgerow is giving an area value of 22 sq m.  The area for the hedge does display correctly in the object info palette.

    Thanks

  4. I have a file where I have entered all of the Uniclass 2015 classification, so if I pull up the COBie Type worksheet the Category is filled in using that info.  However apparently when I export an IFC the COBie category is not included.  I can't work out where to input that information so that it ends up in the IFC file.  Can anyone help?

     

    Thanks

  5. Bit of an odd one, so I exported with a rotation of 239° or so as project rotation, and Solibri showed the drawing rotated from north.  I was then told that my drawing was at the wrong angle for the federated IFC model.  On downloading the Architect's IFC and looking at it in plan in Solibri it is pointing north.  I had previously tried adjusting angle to 239° from true north in the georeferencing and then 'undid' it feeling a bit nervous.  Weirdly the georeferencing now says 0° but (see below) my north point is pointing in an odd direction.

    I then exported IFC with no rotation and apparently my drawing is now magically in the right place.
