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

Now fixed in update 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

Any plans in the roadmap to make this work? Would be nice to be able to offset components at the edges in roof faces.

Thanks both, and especially for the code.
Just out of interest, what area is the =AREA returning?
Laura

= Area, I have lots of other object types that need to return an area in the same worksheet
Thanks

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

I have just had the areas of hedgerows return incorrectly (too high). When I converted to polygons I got the correct figure. Any ideas what is being returned? Maybe the surface area of the hedge?

This would be really useful, for instance to remove part of the roof over a loft space without removing the furniture within it.

Yes thanks, this works for me too
-
I can get the IFC Floor name correctly in the mapping tab of the IFC export but does anyone know how to get the floor description, floor elevation and floor height?
Thanks

On second thoughts I don't think I have Keyboard Maestro, but maybe a conflict with something else?
-
And tried complete reinstall without importing any user data/workspaces and still not working
-
Repair unfortunately hasn't worked
-
Yes that worked perfectly! Also solves a few other problems with IFC data from survey showing up in my exports.
Thanks

I don't seem to have that option, maybe because I only have the free version of Solibri.
Thanks

I hadn't, so thanks for the suggestion. Do you know where I'd see the COBie category in Solibri so I can check it without having to send to anyone else?
Thanks

I'll give it a try, but a bit scared of the data manager!

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
Laura

Thanks Pat, I'll give that a try tomorrow

Just opened a new file and tried, still not working, maybe something wrong with my installation.

Activate layer (right click) doesn't seem to be working in VW2025

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.

Is there a way to detach IFC data from parking spaces in the same way that record formats can? I want to detach the IFC so that they don't export to my IFC file.
Thanks
Snapping to points in cropped viewports
in Troubleshooting
Posted
Have just had trouble with a couple of cropped viewports (top/plan view, external VW reference) where I coudln't snap to points on the objects contained, only to the crop poly.
On removing hte crop they behave as expected. Think it may be a bug.
